Events
The World Scholar's Cup consists of four main events: The Scholar's Challenge, Collaborative Writing, The Team Debate, and The Scholar's Bowl. In addition to these four events, many more events have come to join the tournament. These events are both social and academic, and strive to solidify the community aspect of the World Scholar's Cup.
The, "Tournament of Champions," held at Yale University. Which will be held in Yale University, in late November- beginning of December. An event was supposed added to the Championship rounds- the Scholars Dilemma, in which Teams will be asked to present their solutions to a creative challenge related to this year's subject areas (but this event was cancelled at the actual tournament.) Also, questions in the Scholar's Challenge and Bowl will not only be limited to what appears in the resources.

Famous quotes containing the word events:
“There is much to be said in favour of modern journalism. By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, it keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community. By carefully chronicling the current events of contemporary life, it shows us of what very little importance such events really are. By invariably discussing the unnecessary, it makes us understand what things are requisite for culture, and what are not.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“I claim not to have controlled events, but confess plainly that events have controlled me.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“One thing that makes art different from life is that in art things have a shape ... it allows us to fix our emotions on events at the moment they occur, it permits a union of heart and mind and tongue and tear.”
—Marilyn French (b. 1929)
