On 21 January 2020, CULS hosted a debate on the proposition "In defence of Foakes v Beer", which featured Dr Janet O'Sullivan and Mr William Day, chaired by Dr Jonathan Morgan.

This is the central question posed by the seminal contract case of Foakes v Beer, and a question which generations of law tripos students have had to grapple with.

This event was designed to enrich the contract law tripos module and was particularly aimed at allowing Part IB students to supplement their lecture notes and further reading.
