The University of Lethbridge hosts a unique debate-style event for students this weekend.

On Saturday, March 1, the local post-secondary’s inaugural High School Ethics Bowl will feature two teams from Lethbridge Collegiate Institute and one from Chinook High School, with the event happening from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in Anderson Hall. 

Teams will discuss and debate their thoughts on different societal questions.  

Undergraduate students from the U of L and collegiate ethics bowl team members will be moderators. Department of Philosophy faculty and a graduate student will act as judges. 

The Lethbridge event is one of three regional competitions in Alberta. 

The winning club moves on to face winners from Calgary and Edmonton at a provincial tournament in the spring. The program wraps up with the National High School Ethics Bowl at the Canadian Museum of Human Rights in Winnipeg. 

More about the national program is available at the Ethics Bowl Canada website.
