A poster announcing the Call for Papers for the AAR EIR 2025 conference. The theme of the conference is "The Future(s) of Religious Studies". The date of the conference is April 4-6, 2025. A large paragraph explaining the conference theme reads: "The Humanities in general and Religious Studies in particular face difficult challenges amid the uncertain future of higher education. Nevertheless, the understanding of religion seems crucial to comprehending present conflicts and future developments in our social, economic, and political worlds. We contend that our members are best served by approaching these challenges collaboratively, drawing from multiple perspectives and areas of expertise. We therefore welcome papers and panels that broadly engage the theme across regions, traditions, historical periods, theories, and methods." The poster includes the logos for 3 event sponsors: the American Academy of Religion, New York Six Liberal Arts Consortium, and St. Lawrence University. For more information, the poster invites people to visit the EIR website: https://eiraar.org/index.php/regional-news/2025-conference-call-for-papers
