Venue: Kirwan Theatre

Date: Tuesday, 24th January

Time: 7pm

With the Trinity intervarsity competition just around the corner, workshops are becoming all the more important for last-minute POI sharpening, fear killing and thing learning. This week, as always, Lit & Deb will help to shape the young minds of debaters university-wide and aid them in figuring out how to stand up and make a cracking speech, whether in-house on Thursdays in the Kirwan or in the wider world of debater-land at national and international competitions. Those of you who aren't quite up to that yet can always feel free to judge and learn the tricks of the trade that way. In any case, rest assured that the society is always doing its best to provide you with a relaxed atmosphere in which to battle the public-speaking gremlins.

This week Lit & Deb debates the position of the rights of animals in relation to those of man.

Vivisection and animal testing have been, and continue to be, contentious ethical issues due to the implication of the belief in the subordinate value of other living beings despite the rational that humans have to create superior environments for those lower down the food chain, a privilege which the aforementioned beings lack.

The benefits of this testing are infinite however, ranging from the medicinal to the cosmetic, which leads to a conflict of interest. Four guest speakers will be in attendance on the night and, after their speeches, the debate will be opened to insights and contributions from the floor.

It's your future.  How far will you take it?
