WHAT IS A SATELLITE CENTER? 

For the past 4 years, students who wanted to reap the benefits of the Resource Center had to trek from the furthest reaches of New York City to the middle of Brooklyn. While many students made the trip, some even daily, the burden of travel times of up to 90 minutes both ways is not the best way to foster debate communities throughout the city. With this in mind, the Resource Center will now be the hub for multiple Satellite Centers throughout the city, open one day a week and staffed by college volunteers from NYU, Columbia, Fordham, and the CUNY schools. 

The Resource Center will continue to have added perks and bonuses for attendance and work done here, as well as special events and activities.

Thought for the Day

  A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep.
