This advertisement for a Faculty Ethics Bowl on investment in the far future made me think of the anti-debate type concept. It’s not exactly that, but they say: “But this won’t be your ordinary run-of-the-mill debate. Ethics Bowl is very different from traditional debate formats. The teams are docked for using rhetoric, spin, aggression, and clever rationalization. Instead, each team is judged on the basis of active listening, flexibility, collaboration, and analytical rigor—essential ingredients for a meaningful discussion on difficult topics.”
