WHAT: FORA.tv, the leading online destination for video programs from the world’s best conferences and events, will broadcast tonight’s Intelligence Squared U.S. (IQ2US) debate, "Should College Football Be Banned?” Corruption and a growing concern for head injury have put college football in the spotlight. Are football programs’ millions in profits exploitation? Or are they still a celebration of amateur sport? Does football’s inherent danger and violence have any place in institutions of higher learning? Or does it provide young men with educational opportunities they would not otherwise have?
WHEN: Tuesday, May 8th at 6:45 pm EST
WHERE: The debate will be streamed live at intelligencesquaredus.fora.tv. Following the live event, FORA.tv will offer the debate as a free on-demand program, and the full video and highlights will be available to share and embed.
