Our Team had the great opportunity to be represented at the highest level of debate competitions, the 2020 World Universities Debating Championship hosted at Assumption University in Thailand! Incredibly proud and humbled of the team for having worked to get this chance for the first time ever. A special thanks to the team of Chrismal Abraham & Lakshay Khosla and our coach Trevor Colliton for working hard to represent us and perform well at this tough competition.

Wow! With another weekend completed, the BC Speech and Debate Team competed in two separate tournaments!

One was at Brandeis University, where we had three teams go head to head with the best Harvard, Yale, Stanford, etc. had to offer as this was the last major prep tournament before the World Universities Debate Championships. All the schools brought their A-game and it was fun!

The second tournament was at Nassau Community College where our speech side competed in the Off-Broadway Swing. Our members did extremely well as usual against our many local rival schools!

As these were our last competitions for the semester, we would like to thank everyone who supported us and everyone who joined our family! :)

What a fantastic weekend! This weekend, the BC Speech and Debate Team was in Vancouver, British Columbia, for the UBC IV 2018 Tournament. 15 people, including 6 teams and 3 judges were there! It was a pleasure to be the only East coast team there.

Novice debaters Corrinne Greene and Carlos J. Calzadilla-Palacio won 2nd place in the Novice Finals! In addition, Josiah James was the top speaker from Brooklyn College! Huge congrats to them for repping BC!!!!

Moreover, novice judge Loren Hernandez chaired a round and broke to finals as an adjudicator, in addition to our coach Trevor Colliton! Our other teams were very close/on the brink of breaking. Very proud of everyone!
