The Student Honors Board is attempting to bring back the Life Raft Debate to OWU. What is the Life Raft Debate?
Imagine a postapocalyptic nuclear wasteland and the few survivors remaining are setting sail in search of land to rebuild society from the ground up. There is only one spot remaining on the raft. A group of academics from Ohio Wesleyan University stumbles into your group about to depart. Each professor will try to persuade you to let them on the raft by arguing that their discipline is indispensable to the new civilization. Which discipline will you choose? Or will you give into the Devil’s Advocate arguing why none of these disciplines should be represented on the life raft? Whose blend of lecture and humor will carry the day?
In order to help figure out which professors we should ask to participate, we are asking students to nominate them via the link below:
