Another great session of introductory debate at the Dolley Madison Public Library! The students chose to debate a very complicated issue: Euthanasia (physician-assisted death) should be legal. Regardless, they understood the topic very well and made good points during the round.

Our 2nd debate camp with students debating about if plastic straws should be banned. There was lots of clash and a lot of good arguments made.

This was our first ever debate camp where students were introduced to Public Forum debate and debated whether or not self-driving cars were a public safety hazard.
