Debating, Friday September 28
Chuck got into the classroom a few seconds after the bell rung. He didn’t seem happy with this time. Too soon, probably. That meant more time teaching.
“All right, class. Today is your first practical debating session. Today’s debates will count for credit. Winners get A’s, losers get F’s.” He gave the class a stern look. “As I told you before, losing should be avoided at all costs. This grading system is the perfect incentive to make sure you all fight your hardest.”
Chuck passed out debating topics. “Break off into pairs, pick a topic, and go at it. I’ll walk around the classroom and keep an eye on your progress. Come up after class and tell me who won. And no arguing over who was victorious. If there hasn’t been a solid victory by the end of class, then you’re both failures.” He shrugged. “Sounds a little dog-eat-dog, I know. But that’s just the way life is. Go!”
