- The debate for Issue #2 is whether you agree or disagree with this statement “The Grace Company should be held responsible.” Please watch the Youtube video for an introduction at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04iyh_g9XFA
- Please let me know ASAP if you want to be a judge for Issue #2. We can have 5 judges again this time. If you have been a judge before, you cannot be a judge this time. I will post the names of the judges as soon as I hear from 5 of you.
- For EVERYONE except for the judges, please email me by the end of Wednesday (10/1) your side and your role. I will then post the names on each side, as well as your contact information.
- By 10/15 (Wednesday), EVERYONE except for the judges will need to post a position statement, AND by 10/22 (Wednesday) a short video. The short video must be something that you recorded, relevant to issue #2, limited to 3 minutes maximum. It does not have to be that you are making statements. You can be creative on this!
- Everyone will have chance to read the posted statements and view the videos in the week of 10/15-10/29, to prepare for the debate on 10/29.
- We’ll meet on 10/29 to start the debate. Look for more announcements prior to that date.

Please note the update on 10/10 - the position statement should be uploaded by 10/15, and the videoclip has a deadline of 10/22. You can post the link to your video (Youtube or anywhere else) in your position statement.
Once again, you could (probably should) submit your position statement as a comment to my post “Sides and Roles for Issue #2: The Grace Company should be held responsible.”
