St. Olaf Debate Team

Category: Academic

The St. Olaf Debate team participates in Parliamentary debate, a competition where debaters must argue both sides of a variety of current political issues. In order to stay prepared, the debate team meets twice a week to study current affairs, logical argumentation, and speaking styles before excercising our debating skills in practice rounds. We are an active club involved in intercollegiate and intramural competition. We hope that all members will benefit from increased public speaking skills, intellectual activity, and entering the world of political thought. In our first year, we have had finalists at every tournament and we won the MN State Championship. We also participated in every PAC Dinner Debate and hosted public debates against Carleton.
