He has written one-act plays and recently tied for first place in the short sermon contest at the national fine arts competition. His father works at a metal factory, which has been on strike for several months. Over the years, Eagle Debate graduates have gone onto prestigious graduate schools or become leaders in business, church and community. Kristin Waggoner , a 1996 graduate, is now an attorney for a major law firm in Seattle. Jacob Witt , a 1998 graduate and top NC Debater, is now pursuing a Masters Degree in Intercultural Communication from the University of Northern Iowa, one of the best speech graduate programs in the nation.
Recent graduates are on their way to significant leadership positions.
He was selected for the 1999 United States Debate Team and traveled to Europe for debates in March of 1999. James is now applying to be a Rhodes Scholar and return to Oxford. The last time he was there he and his partner placed above all seven Oxford teams at a British national tournament. We think that his many debate awards will make his application stand out. You can join in our efforts here at Northwest College to prepare students for leadership by donating to the Eagle Debate Scholarship fund.
