To place in the top 20 teams in the nation consistently, our debaters read over 6,000 articles, books, and blogs about topics like healthcare disparities, law, foreign policy, economics, philosophy and military preparedness each year.  To give that reading a real world context, we culminate each season by hosting an event called the Amazing Advocates Series where we bring in talented, smart thought leaders to discuss a related dimension of that season's debate resolution.   One NYU CEDA team officer joins with Director Will Baker as the Principal Organizer for the event.
