About the 20th F3S CSS

Since 2006, the UF Florida Society of the Social Sciences (F3S) has hosted the annual Conference of the Social Sciences (CSS). This conference provides a unique forum for Florida’s scholars of the social and humanistic sciences to engage with others around issues of social import and impact. Hundreds of graduate and undergraduate students from around the state come together at the CSS to present and discuss their work with a broad audience that crosses disciplines, professions, origins, and walks of life.
