April 6 motion announced

Thank you to everyone who suggested possible topics for our next tournament and thanks to the CTMSDL Board for the time and effort they put into making the decision. The motion for our April 6, 2019 tournament at Eastern Middle School in Riverside, Greenwich will be:

THW prohibit the development and implementation of human gene editing.

Teams should be prepared to argue both in favor of and against the motion.

Your debaters will have no problem researching this topic as it’s been in the news a lot since a researcher in China announced that he used Crispr to create the world’s first gene edited babies. There are plenty of videos and TED talks that explain at the Middle School level.

If you have questions or comments, please email us.
