Details

This the next meeting we will have a Hot Take Monologues style debate over brunch. Light snacks and drinks will be provided, but feel free to bring your own food and drinks. One person will share their thoughts on the topic, follow by a group discussion. The topics of conversation for next week are:

  1. Nature vs. Nurture.
  2. Should we have a national ban on Guns?
  3. Does it make sense to go to college still?

You're welcome to research the topic beforehand, but it's not necessary. We will form the teams and select the judge/s on the day of the meetings.

Meetup Rules:
Strict Rule: Don't interrupt others when it is their time to speak. The only interruption will be to let them know how much time remains.

Recommended Rules:

  1. Treat others with respect.
  2. Try to argue for positions you don't agree with to increase your mind's plasticity.
  3. Don't tease or make fun of anyone or any groups.
  4. During the debate portion only, try to avoid making jokes.

Judge Recommendations:

  • Note good points from both teams.
  • Make a decision as to who won the argument.
