Constitutional Law Debate Program

The Constitutional Law Debate Program is structured to help students enhance their public speaking, reasoning, listening, critical thinking and advocacy skills. Law students and attorneys are invited to serve as guest judges at our debates and to help draft debate fact patterns. Further, we invite any law firm interested in sponsoring a debate to contact us.  CLE credit is available.
