2026 Indiana High School Ethics Bowl
The Indiana High School Ethics Bowl (IHSEB) is an affiliated Regional Competition with the National High School Ethics Bowl program. The 2026 IHSEB will take place on Saturday, January 31, 2026 at the Prindle Institute for Ethics on the campus of DePauw University in Greencastle, IN. All teams will participate in three preliminary rounds in the morning, with winning teams moving onto elimination rounds in the afternoon. The winner of the IHSEB will advance to NHSEB’s Central Divisional Playoffs (also hosted by the Prindle Institute) to compete for a seat at the NHSEB National Championship in April 2026 at the University of North Carolina’s Parr Center for Ethics.
Registration for the Indiana High School Ethics Bowl is now open. Schools may register one team between now and November 1. After that point, registration will open to second teams as space allows, with invitations going out in initial registration order. The 2025-2026 IHSEB registration fee is $250 for the first team registered, and an additional $75 for each additional participating team from a school. This fee is inclusive of the $175 NHSEB Registration fee, and that fee will be directed to NHSEB HQ upon registration with the Prindle Institute for IHSEB 2026. All registrations must be completed by December 1, 2025.
