Discussion: “Intellectual Property - Resolved”
A topic of hot debate within the club and abroad - is it necessary for innovation or damaging to creativity? Can somebody legitimately own an idea that is exclusively granted to them for their own use? Can someone own something that doesn’t exist? We will be showing clips from The Social Network to guide discussion.

Discussion: “The WikiWorld - Information Privacy and the State”
Is there such a thing as state secrets and can/should they be enforced? Should we even be an official mirror of Wikileaks?

Discussion: “Human Life”
Abortion, life support, healthcare, brain death, organ donation, organ markets, and the taboos of cannibalism and necrophilia are all varying topics regarding the sanctity of human life. Where did such an idea come from? What are the implications?

Discussion: “Private Slavery vs Public Slavery”
The private ownership of people was not only abolished but is nearly universally viewed to be wrong on all accounts. But what about the public ownership of people? Jurors, tax payers, debtors, and prisoners will we be related to this campus discussion.
