WM Lab: Off to a Strong Start!
http://wmlab.blogspot.com/2009/06/off-to-strong-start.html
Staff: David Wolfish, Michael Mangus. Monday, June 22, 2009. Off to a Strong Start! We are off to a strong start in Denton! We are debating an excellent topic that questions whether economic sanctions ought not be used to achieve foreign policy objectives. Besides being quite timely, the resolution engages economic, philosophical, political, normative, and sociological issues. Having taught at a few institutes, Michael and I can comfortably say that this is already our favorite camp topic.

BNS Lab: Blog for Monday
http://bnslab.blogspot.com/2009/06/blog-for-monday.html
Staff: Perry Beard, Courtney Nunley, Danielle Smogard. Monday, June 29, 2009. The students all brought a lot of energy to the table so a lot was accomplished. Taral, Sarah, Lauren, Ryan, Ankit, and Diana did a fantastic job and approved very much each time they re-did their speeches. Finally Sarah had been begging to do Supreme Court for her case, so she volunteered to be questioned non-stop for the remaining portion of lab. That shows dedication!
