January 1, 1993

Eight students from the Vassar Debate Society competed in the World Debate Tournament in Oxford, England. One pair, Michael Fanuele ’94 and Tim Yusuf ’94, placed within the top 32 teams in the world. In describing his experience, Yusuf commented that “[Oxford] tried to make the tournament as internaitonal as possible,” and reflected on a fulfilling competition in which “the top thirty teams were all very close [in terms of skill.]” The two debaters planned to compete again at the following year’s tournament in Melbourne, Australia.
