Intercollegiate Ethics Bowl

[6] In 2008, a spin-off began, the Bioethics Bowl, which focuses exclusively on ethical issues in health care.

[8] An international version of the same event has been established using Zoom to bring high school students together called an Ethics Olympiad.

In each round, the first team gets one of twelve to fifteen cases randomly assigned plus a question from the moderator.

The first team then has ten minutes to present the central moral issues of the cases, as well as alternative points of view.

In 1996, the same four schools participated in the local competition, along with a team from the United States Air Force Academy.

In 2006, due to the number of teams wishing to participate in the Ethics Bowl, regional competitions were held at locations throughout the U.S., and the top-scoring 32 teams were invited to participate in the national competition held in February, 2007.
