Presentation Notes
So keeping with the holiday spirit, I present to you our debate participants who will wow you with their charisma, impress you with their powerpoint animations, and make an unforgettable pitch as to their position. As you can see they are each very excited to share with you their research, logic, and compelling arguments.
