I'm Jack. This is my second year of debate, but my experience so far has been incredibly rewarding. While COVID-19 had initially made it impossible to travel, this year as things have re-opened, I have had the opportunity to travel around the country to debate. This activity has been one of the most academically engaging things I have ever done, affording me an opportunity to learn about a variety of topics from water protection law to the interworkings of US-Russia relations. Debate has also led to me creating life-long friendships with people around the country.
