Debate Team Ready To Go

For the third straight year, the Yeshiva University Debate Society (YUDS) will be competing in the Public Forum Debate League (PFDL). Andrew Jacobs, a renowned debate coach known throughout the local debate world and founder of the once three team league of Rochester Community College, Queens College, and YU, has watched the PFDL grow tremendously, now including such prestigious institutions as Columbia, NYU, Binghamton, Rochester, and Cornell.

Yeshiva University will be hosting two debate tournaments during the academic year, and will be attending tournaments at Cornell, Columbia, NYU and Rochester. While competition is intense at these tournaments, many feel the Debate Society provides a forum for students to expand their horizons and become good public speakers, in addition to merely fluffing one's resume. The first tournament of the year will be held Monday. October 25, 1999 at Queens College. For more information, email yudebate@hotmail.com or visit their website at http://surf.to/yuds.
