Jon Cruz Announces Vassar Round Robin Field

Jon Cruz has announced the field for the ninth annual Vassar Round Robin, to be hosted this year at Collegiate School in Manhattan. Twenty-four competitors will compete in three pods; the winners of the three pods and the highest-ranking second-place debater across pods will advance into a semifinal debate, to be followed by a final exhibition to determine the champion of the Vassar Round Robin.

As with the reminder that accompanied the Greenhill Round Robin announcement, a caveat ought to be included, and it’s one that applies to all such announcements this year. The purpose of releasing the field is informational. Such announcements should be celebrations of those who were invited, not a forum to criticize those who will attend or should have been invited based on the opinion of readers.
