Kent Debating Society is a society set up by a group of students who felt something was missing amongst the huge range of student societies on offer. Some of us have experience in international competitions, others are complete beginners; some of us are law students, some of us are computer programmers but collectively we are united in a determination to provide a regular forum for Kent students to do what we love: arguing with each other!
So whether you have career ambitions that our society can help you realise or you just like to disagree with people, sign up to the Kent University Debating Society: there’s a good argument for joining!
Follow us on Twitter or visit our Facebook page.
Aims and Objectives:
1. To establish a positive reputation for Kent University in debating regionally, nationally and internationally.
2. To provide an environment where students of all backgrounds and abilities (both socially and academically) can engage in debating and by doing so develop confidence, empathy and strength of convictions through not only the art of arguing but the art of listening
3. To provide a platform of debate that is impartial and free of political association.
4. To exploit this environment to engage with the wider community
5. To embrace topics ranging from the wacky to the controversial
