The University of Arkansas Chapter of Students for Sensible Drug Policy (SSDP), in coordination with University Programs, is hosting a debate between former Princeton Professor/Executive Director of the Drug Policy Alliance Ethan Nadelmann and former DEA Administrator/US Congressman Asa Hutchinson.

The pair will debate about whether we should continue to fight the War on Drugs or look toward an alternative approach such as legalization. Both speakers bring years of experience and knowledge to the table. Asa Hutchinson held the top position at the DEA from 2001 to 2003. Ethan Nadelmann is the leading voice and leader of the drug policy reform movement in the United States and abroad, he is currently the Executive Director of the Drug Policy Alliance.

The two debated on the same topic nearly eleven years ago on CNN Crossfire: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwFz_6NbxZY
