Paper submissions must meet the following requirements:

• Do not include author information anywhere within the paper itself
• You must be a registered undergraduate student at the time of submission (Submissions are accepted from students at any institution, not only Cornell)
• Only one submission per author will be accepted
• Submissions should be submitted via this Google form.

Papers will be evaluated for publication on the basis of a blind peer review, and cash prizes in the sums of $300, $150, and $50 will be awarded to the authors of the first, second, and third place papers respectively.

In terms of the criteria for evaluation, papers with a well-established thesis, unique insights, cogent arguments, and great originality are especially valued.

The use of AI tools, such as ChatGPT, Claude, DeepSeek, etc. and any other generative AI in the production of your paper is forbidden, and will immediately disqualify your paper.
