A BDL tournament is a rigorous and intense academic competition. It teams of two, students from Boston public high schools argue for and against public policy proposals on issues ranging from science to economics to politics and government. For many, tournaments are a rare opportunity to connect intellectually with their peers and to have their ideas about important issues considered seriously by adults. Such an experience has a powerful effect on a student's self-esteem and interest in education.
