More videos incoming later.

The resolution here, which isn't explicitly stated but I've picked up through references to it, is "university partnerships with corporate generative AI constitute a threat to academic freedom," and the debate is very interesting (even if i prefer pure policy resolutions)

Junior Hannah Crowell was invited to an exclusive public debate tournament about academic freedom. She and her team went and won the whole dang thing! Thank you to Pitt Debating Union for hosting our student from #UNLV!
