    Wat is debate

    I don’t usually post on this site, but I would like to give a major shoutout to Anand Balaji for getting his first bid. I have seen him work tremendously hard from freshman year to get to this point, competing in multiple bid rounds. Also, he is incredibly kind and just a great guy to be around. Congratulations Anand for your first bid (also as a junior)!

    (Also, the OG SORCERERBALLERS aren’t done yet).

    • Dhruv Walia

      Y’all should have seen his bid dance
