Speech by the UBC VP for Students

"I don't think that the values of debate and the values of a university could be any more perfectly aligned."
Greetings home with that ...

Additionally, the VP acknowledges the dedication and commitment of the many volunteers at this tournament.
The applause is indeed well-deserved - excellent job, guys.

"I wish you all well for the End of the Worlds party ..."

After working 13 hour shifts throughout the week as a volunteer I`m glad we got our recognition. But thanks to you (the debaters and adjudication team) for making our job a hell of a lot easier by being patient with us (especially the grade school kids I practically babysat.)

As to the last quote, I think the VP actually said "I wish you all well for the End of the World party (mind the S missing).. further saying that this is the event he was told will happen.

The chap was brilliant tho!
