Apocalypse Debate
Humanity stands on the brink of total annihilation. As the bombs detonate, the meteor plummets, or the temperatures rise, there exists a time capsule that preserves (in full) one entire discipline of human thought, to be opened by the next generation of sentient life on the planet. Which discipline should be preserved? Join LOGOS – Cornell’s Undergraduate Philosophy Club in this exciting debate about which field should be preserved for the next generation! At the end of the debate, participants can vote for which field they believe should be passed down and a winner will be crowned!
Disciplines participating, and those who are representing them:
Computer Science: Kilian Weinberger
Philosophy: Julia Markovits
Biology: Joseph McFadden
Devil’s Advocate: Sam Nelson
