NFHS Announces “Intellectual Property Rights” to be 2024-25 National High School Policy Debate Topic
The National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) has announced the selection of “Intellectual Property Rights” as the National High School Policy Debate Topic for the 2024-25 academic year.
Intellectual Property Rights was chosen over “Nuclear Weapons Reduction” by a 25-17 vote in the final balloting process, which saw participation from 38 state associations, the National Speech and Debate Association, the National Catholic Forensic League, the National Association for Urban Debate Leagues and the Nation Debate Coaches Association.
“We are glad we had 42 states and national organizations take part in this important process to select the national topic,” said Dr. James Weaver, NFHS director of performing arts and sports. “It is important for our membership to have their voices heard. Intellectual Property Rights and Nuclear Weapons Reduction are both excellent topics that deserve to be debated by some of the brightest youth in our country.”
