Full Contact Debate

A friend forwarded me this article.    Don't ever say that Debate isn't a dangerous contact sport  ;-)

A Penn student was arrested for assaulting a Princeton University student who was staying in the Quadrangle for an on-campus debate tournament this weekend. The incident took place early Saturday morning.

...The Penn student "threw the oil all over the most vocal of the Princeton kids," Sandman said. "He was kicking the student and made him promise never to set foot on Penn's campus again."

I was a high school debater and didn't really carry it forward into college.   Still, the article makes me chuckle.   ;-)   The antics are utterly sophomoric but, uh, we're dealing with sophomores.
