Baltimore Urban Debate League

The Baltimore Urban Debate League (BUDL) uses the art of debate to change lives. BUDL brings learning to life by making it relevant, real, and fun. In competitive debate and in the debate classroom students do more than just memorize and spit back facts, they own and direct their learning, they approach a topic from where they are and by doing so they find their voice, their purpose, and their power. Students in BUDL develop a thirst for knowledge and become inspired to seek and utilize new information.
