Debate is about experiencing the perspective of others—standing in the shoes of a feminist, policy maker, educator, patient, or criminal and advocating for all identities.

I wanted to take some time to share my experiences of my two recent debate tournaments with you. The previous weekend I took part in the 35th Annual Stanford Invitationals and this weekend it was the 47th Annual Harvard National Forensics Tournament. Throughout both tournaments, I’m extremely proud of what I learned, as well as my results. In the Stanford competition, I placed individual 22nd overall out of 352 competitors. In the Harvard competition, not only did my team enter elimination rounds but we also made it to octo finals, which is a huge achievement to my partner and I. Thank you for your time!

My daughter was accepted by Yale University. I would like to thank you, Rudi, Mars and other teachers for their careful cultivation and teaching, otherwise she will not be able to advance quickly in a short period of time and achieve good results in the national and even North American debate competitions. These accomplishments have helped her to set a foot in the dream school. Thank you again sincerely.
