Title

Loyola Phoenix: "British debate team visits Loyola to compete"

Description

This article describes the British debate team's visit to Loyola. As part of a two-month tour across the United States, the British National Debate Team visited Loyola University Chicago for a public debate on the statement "The house (the world) would welcome a world without religion." Loyola debate team members enjoyed being exposed to the different perspectives and debating style of the British team, as it was the first time in three years they had debated with another country's team. In contrast to "American methods of research and evidence presentation", the British style of debating was characterized by "persuasion and humor."
