Imagine a Zoom room filled with bobbing heads, shaking shoulders and “roof raising” hands.
Imagine “DJ DeLay” hyping the crowd, passing the mic from ethics bowl coaches to judges to team captains and back.
Imagine fresh 80s tunes pumpin’ in the background.
And imagine U-M Philosophy Outreach Coordinator Adam Anderson Waggoner stealing the show with a custom Michigan High School Ethics Bowl kickoff rap.
Hey Jeanine, Hey Jeanine, U of M Philosophy loves the ethics bowl scene! It gives us inspiration for our academic dreams.
The questions, the insights, analysis of cases – your work is the reason for the smiles on our faces.
Everyone is showing that the ethics keeps them flowing. No matter where you go, you know we will keep it goin’.
And I want to thank all the dedicated coaches, for all your hours spent, and for all your new approaches. The way you make a difference is amazing – please know this.
So now I’ll pass the mic right back to Jeanine, so we can hear some words from these excellent teams.
What an awesome way to begin a weekend of ethics bowling! As DJ DeLay put it, an event “dedicated to everyone around the world working for health and education, dignity and justice… and philosophy for all.”
All I have to say is…. Aint no party like a Michigan HSEB party cause a Michigan HSEB party don’t stop! Keep doin’ yo think, A2Ethics and DJ DeLay 😉
