Freeman more than 70 years ago, the Team attracts approximately 25-50 students annually. 学生 may be introduced to the Forensic Arts for the first time or continue involvement with debate activities that may have started in high school.

The 辩论队 office is a popular tourist attraction for visitors to the campus, to see the thousands of trophies won by the team and the numerous photos of students in competitions around the world. Other memorabilia in the office attests to the popularity of this campus organization- the certificates of achievement, merit awards and proclamations from national dignitaries
Interviews for selection of students are conducted throughout the year. Joining the 辩论队 assures participants of training to prepare for the numerous styles of debate and other forensic activities. 学生 with the best scores in the various events conducted during the Fall Term may qualify for an International competition held the following Spring Term.
