Students enjoyed the most exciting and fun-filled day of camp so far. Not only did the UNT workshop tournament begin at 9am but its also Independence Day. The ATMers had cases prepared, blocks written…all they were lacking was fresh meat for the grinder: opponents to debate. Rounds one and two pitted labs from all walks of life in an all out battle for bragging rights (I mean for education =). After briefly putting their newly learned and sharpened skills to the test, the ATMers and other labs were given a break to enjoy some much needed free-time. All of the debaters at the workshop got to attend a special screening of the box office hit "Blood Diamond" (an extremely topical movie). Although some of the ATMers were upset that they missed the last 10 minutes of the movie, hopefully that was countered by an amazing display of pyrotechnics at the UNT Stadium. The show lasted for about 25 minutes and the finale was among the best I have ever witnessed. Hopefully, the ATMers will get some rest and be ready to take care of business in rounds 3, 4 ad 5 tomorrow.
