Ethics Bowl differs from debate because teams do not take adversarial positions but rather work together to clarify ethical issues and suggested courses of action. Teams have an opportunity to present their positions, comment on each other’s presentations, and reply to questions from a panel of judges. Ethics Bowl prepares students to appreciate the virtues of living in a deliberative democracy and nurtures habits of mind that strengthen local, national, and global citizenship.
“I think exposure to ethical problem solving makes for wiser, more thoughtful and civic minded teens.”
– Parent of High School Ethics Bowl student
