Ethics Bowl Summer Workshop

Current and prospective Ethics Bowl coaches and team members, as well as regional hosts, are encouraged to attend the Ethics Bowl Summer Workshop on July 25 and 26, 2025. This free, online event will feature sessions on topics designed for all types of Ethics Bowlers--coaches, regional hosts, students, newcomers, and veterans.

For those newer to Ethics Bowl, we encourage you to watch the ABCs of Ethics Bowl--a series of six information videos that run 15 to 20 minutes long--prior to joining the workshop.
