Debates

The TU Speech and Debate Team sponsors public exhibition debates in the fall and spring. The fall event features three-person teams of Towson students arguing a topic in front of an audience. In the spring, the team hosts Cambridge University students in a friendly but heated exhibition debate. Members of the Individual Events Team tackle speeches, monologues and standups in two performances a year.
