For high school Ethics Bowl teams not ready for the season to end, our friends with TKEthics are hosting an online event on March 19th. While it’s billed as the Senior European Ethics Olympiad, teams of 14 to 18-year-olds from anywhere in the world are invited. However, one complication is that CET = Central European Time, which is 6 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time, meaning it’ll run from 3:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. EST! But it least it’s via Zoom, and at least it’s on the same calendar day – participating in Australian Ethics Olympiads sometimes means confirming not only the correct time, but the correct day. But from my experience, the chance to do Ethics Bowl (Ethics Olympiad is essentially the same as Ethics Bowl) with smart, compassionate folks in other countries is well worth the lost sleep.
** There’s also a TKEthics Spring Invitational on February 28th with better hours. Not exactly the same as Ethics Bowl/Olympiad, but related – check it out here.
The best of luck to all who participate! Good coffee recommended. And thanks to Archie and Davida for sharing!
