Santa Fe College Ethics Bowl Team Competes in Orlando

October 31, 2016

Santa Fe College competed on Saturday in the 13th Annual Southeast Regional Ethics Bowl, held at the University of Central Florida in Orlando. Ethics Bowl is a competitive tournament style competition in which student teams converse about topics ranging from professional ethics to social and political topics, and are then scored by a panel of judges on their responses both to the question and one another. Topics for this year's Ethics Bowl included: Apple's refusal to comply with an FBI request to provide anti-encryption software to access information stored in an iPhone belonging to one of the 2015 San Bernardino shooters; a proposal to tax the beef industry as one means to combat climate change; and a proposal to legalize all illicit drugs.
