It is a prominent and national contest, with big cash prizes for the winners. More importantly, it would be a great showcase for our History Day students! Now Debate This! is a national scholarship competition taking place this summer. Sixteen of the best and brightest will be selected to spend their summer studying the lives and legacies of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. At the end of their studies, they will debate who the better President was. The winner will receive a full scholarship to the college of their choice. It's the perfect opportunity for NHD participants. Check it out at www.nowdebatethis.com All sixteen contestants will receive a $3,500 dollar summer stipend, a new laptop and video camera. At the end of their summer, they will travel through time, visiting historic sites throughout the Untied States (Mount Vernon, Springfield, IL, Philadelphia), experiencing firsthand the lives of both of these Presidents. Then, the real debates begin. On August 9, the 16 will go head to head, debating the legacies of both Presidents? The top winners will win scholarships of up to $25,000. (Every one of the 16 earns at least $2,000 in scholarship money!) The Top Two will debate live-online and maybe on television-for a $150,000 scholarship. The "loser" (some loser!) will walk away with a $50,000 scholarship. Become a contestant, and your life could change forever. Learn how to enter at nowdebatethis.com
