The Evolution and Design Class at Cornell
Recently there was a biology class in Cornell dealing with Intelligent Design and Evolution. It was unique in that not only was ID-vs-evolution a topic open for discussion at a major university, but also that it invited participants from all perspectives to the debate on the class's website.
If you are interested, the record of the site/class discussion is archived here and the student papers on evolution and design are here.
I participated fairly heavily in the debate, especially in the opening weeks. Hannah and Salvador were the primary ones holding up the ID position.
Anyway, it was a great time, and a lot of learning by everyone.
Many thanks to Allen McNeil for opening his class to the rest of us.
