A day-long program focused on the future of undergraduate education
Bishop’s wants to explore the complex issues around undergraduate education and since the University firmly believes collaboration leads to inspiration and innovation, speakers from three other universities – Acadia, Mount Allison, and St. Francis Xavier – have been invited to join in the conversation.
On Saturday, February 9th, 2013 our “Up for Debate” program will feature three separate but complementary events – a student debate tournament, TEDxBishopsU and tapings of the CBC’s The Debaters. While all of the daytime events are open to the Bishop’s University community and to the general public for free, a limited number of tickets are currently on sale through Centennial Theatre’s box office for the evening taping of the CBC's The Debaters.
Schedule of events:
- Student Debate Tournament (8:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m., McGreer)
Stay tuned for a fascinating line up of debate topics and venues! - TEDxBishopsU (1p.m. – 5 p.m., Bandeen Hall)
We have an incredible line up of speakers! Check out our Website for more information: www.tedxbishopsu.ca - CBC's “The Debaters” (7:30 p.m. -10:30 p.m., Centennial Theatre)
Tickets are now on sale at the Centennial box office.
