Global Debate: Princeton Wins APDA Sweepstakes
“Last weekend, the Princeton Debate Panel received the inaugural College of the Year Award for being the top debate panel in the country. The award was given at the American Parliamentary Debating Association National Championship, at which Princeton also was one of the few schools in the competition’s history to have two teams advance to the semifinals.”
“The College of the Year award is given to reward a school’s aggregate success over the course of the debate season. The University debate panel attended more than 20 tournaments this year, including the World Championships in Thailand and the North American Championship in Ottawa, Canada.
------------------------------
At the ADPA event at MIT, Stanford won and took the award for top speaker. Yale won the top two person Team of the Year award (Bone & Rohrbach), William & Mary’s Andy Hill took Speaker of the Year and Princeton’s Zayn Siddique ’11 took Novice of the Year. Congratulations to all.
