Reed debaters share
their success

Reed’s student debate team presented President Colin Diver with the first place trophy it captured at the 2003-2004 Northwest Forensics Conference. When the debate team members stopped by to give Diver his trophy, they also brought along just some of the individual awards they’ve won. The two-year-young team is tenth in the nation, according to rankings issued by the National Parliamentary Debate Association.
