On Friday we spent our first day in New Haven. We used our time for studying and our final preparations for the Tournament of Champions. As the hotel rooms are not as big as our classrooms, we practiced for our debates in the gym.
On Saturday, we went to Yale University for the opening ceremony and later on spent our afternoon walking around the campus for the Scholar’s scavenge. Even though it was really cold, we had a great time and met many new people.
Sunday was the longest day for all of us. We started off with the Scholar’s Challenge, continued with Team debates and ended with Collaborative Writing. To finish off the day properly, some students decided to dance the night away at the Scholar’s ball.
