Uproar! Debate Survivors

By Angelique Tomilloso

To establish a space for critical thinking and logical reasoning, the Callidus Loquentium collaboration with Rizalian Valors Club held two seminars themed “Wisdom: The Power of Reasoning” and “Talk to Me, Confidence is Key” and a debate competition last May 9 at the Jose Rizal University Auditorium.

“The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing,”

Mr. Dwight Esteves, the first resource speaker, quoted Socrates to introduce the power of argumentation. He emphasized the specific guidelines in debates to prepare the contestants and a few tips for delivering their arguments in the competition.
