Debate Team March Madness

The 杏吧原创 debate team competed for the national championship at the National Debate Tournament (NDT) which kicked off in Washington, D.C., March 31, 2023. Like their basketball-playing fellow students, members of the debate team are dedicated to their craft in a way that a casual observer simply could never understand.
