Bates’ storied Brooks Quimby Debate Council is a unique program that emphasizes international debate as well as intercollegiate competition and public debate. Candidates with an interest in or experience with community-engaged learning are especially encouraged to apply as are candidates with demonstrated success in working with indigenous, historically underrepresented, first generation to college and other marginalized and vulnerable populations.
