In the final round, CDM students Katy Champion, Ryan Whalen, and Derek Whelan defeated the physical therapy students from NSU’s College of Health Care Sciences. Coaches for the CDM students were Harry M. Lehrer, D.M.D., associate professor, and Aryia Amini, D.M.D., assistant professor. The Ethics Bowl is built on the belief that to be an ethical thinker, a person should be open to a diverse range of views, including appreciating the concerns of others, and making a real attempt to understand their views. The event’s objectives include exposing students to ethical dilemmas and encouraging students to work through them with a solid, ethical foundation. The Ethics Bowl also focuses on building community spirit through healthy competition and dialogue about important professional and civic issues. u
