The St. Ignatius Dialogues: Is this a Debate Tournament? Or is it the Next Debate Event?
Join me along with Profs. John Rief and Rob Boller for a fantastic discussion about the Civic Debate Consortium, upcoming events, and a deep dive into what we mean by “debate,” “dialogue,” and even “education.” What counts as a debate event? Have a listen and see what you think.

Rob Boller is soon to be associate professor of Rhetoric & Communication Studies and Director of Debate at the University of San Francisco.
