Over the summer our D-E Ethics Bowl Team, advised by Philosophy and Ethics Department Chair Mr. Joseph Murphy, made it to the TKEthics International Grand Final, held via Zoom on Aug. 29, 2025—and subsequently won the Gold Medal! According to Mr. Murphy, the process began in June for Ethics Bowl members Ezra Newman ’26, Noah Saphier ’26, Sebastian Chang ’27, Hannah Chun ’27, and Matteo de la Rosa Lepore ’26. For the competition, students were tasked with studying and discussing eight complex ethical issues involving technology and Artificial Intelligence. “Tackling large-scale challenges in the world can be incredibly daunting, so we really appreciated the opportunity to remind ourselves that there are people all across the world who are working towards the same goal,” said Team Leader Ezra. Congratulations to our Ethics Bowl Team for this impressive achievement! To read more about the competition and get student reflections, click here
