Sophist Salmon Debate
by Kathleen McCoy |
Dean Case and the CBPP Faculty Research Seminar Committee invite everyone to attend
the annual CBPP Sophist Salmon debate on April 13, from 1 to 2:30 p.m. in RH 101.
The resolution: This house resolves that a state income tax is the only real solution
to Alaska's fiscal problems.
The teams: Professors Lee Huskey and Gunnar Knapp vs. Professors Steve Colt and Steve
Johnson
The sophist principle: Each team prepares both sides of the resolution but a coin
toss close to debate day determines which side they must argue. The audience will
decide the winning team by voting with the feat. Please attend what promises to be
an educational and entertaining event.
