Penn Debate Society

As a student group at the University of Pennsylvania, we are the premier student run debate association on campus competing in the American Parliamentary Debate Association (APDA) and British Parliamentary (BP) debate formats.

PDS is a fantastic community that encourages love for debate.

Joining the Penn Debate Society gave me a family on campus and allowed me to debate for fun in an accepting environment. I would highly encourage anyone at all interested to join PDS!
