Florida continues to lead in Civics and Debate! Because of the success achieved with K-12 students through the Florida Civics and Debate Initiative, we are now giving college students a similar opportunity.
The INAUGURAL Sunshine State Debate will unite students from Florida’s Great 28 colleges for a Reagan-style debate inspired by previous presidential debates. I’m looking forward to meeting all participating students and watching them showcase their skills in February.
