HBS Debaters Muzzle Yale Bulldog
Topics: Communication-DebatesCommunication-DebatesEducation-Campus LifeGovernment and Politics-TaxationCompetition-GeneralIn November, in the friendly confines of Spangler Auditorium, the HBS debate team talked circles around a visiting contingent from the Yale School of Management and won a 2–1 decision. As reported by the Harbus, the motion up for debate was, “This House believes that the U.S. government should impose a windfall tax on U.S. oil corporations.” One hour before the debate began, the HBS team was picked to argue in favor of the resolution. According to the Harbus, the judges favored the HBS team for its ability to frame the motion in ethical terms, as opposed to Yale’s focus on the tax as impractical.
