Top Ten Ethics Bowl Finish for UP

November 27, 2013

Staff and faculty portraitsThe University of Portland recently competed in the Northwest Region’s Ethics Bowl at Seattle Pacific University. Despite facing two teams which were eventually regional semi-finalists, the UP team finished in the Top Ten for the region—an impressive achievement in the University’s first year of competition at that level.

Congratulations are in order to this year’s team members: Lisa Holm, organizational communication; Lakshmi Diener, communication studies; Elizabeth Hartley, biology; Karina Agbisit,  environmental policy and ethics; and Anna Murphy, business administration and Spanish. The team was directed by Bohn Lattin and Brian Simmons, communication studies, and was assisted by Richard Askay, philosophy. For more information contact Simmons at 8025 or simmonsb@up.edu.
