why is debate and Forensics valued so much more than Model UN, Junior Statesmen of America, and Mock Trial by colleges? I recently joined my school's debate team, but i'm also VP of my MUN team and active participant in my JSA chapter. I just think it's unfair that i devote so much time to my other activities and schools will be brush me aside for a good debater just because i wasn't able to join in freshmen year. ANY REASONS?

anyone can be in model UN and JSA...not everyone can debate. Debating abilities is indicative of a good communicator. That's all...

Wait, by debate team, do you mean Parlimentary Debators Union?

I'm in the NYU PDU, and we're good friends with the Columiba team ...

It's one of the activities that I plan to continue if I am able to transfer to CU. (Even though NYU actually does have a better team).
