The APA Committee on Pre-College Philosophy hosted a session at the Eastern Division meeting of the American Philosophical Association on December 27th on High School Bioethics.  The panelists, Art Caplan, Craig Merow and Rory Kraft, chaired by  Dominic Sisti, engaged in a stimulating and reflective dialogue on the theoretial and practical challenges of high school bioethics courses.  Current Germantown Academy seniors and bioethics students, Joeylyn Yockey and Tim McAleer, added a student perspective.  Audience participation was lively and the session gave attendees much to think about as they return to their colleges and schools.
