WDI Alumni Wins World Title


It was a great day for Romania and for Dan Cristea. They won the English Second Language world debating title at the 2009 World Universities Debating Championships held in Cork, Ireland at the beginning of January.

Dan attended WDI as a high school student from Romania. "It is really where I got my start with debating, and I will never forget it," he recalled in Cork while talking to WDI director Snider.

Dan now debates for Babes-Bolyai University . He and his partner, Nicoleta Lupea , are also European champions in the same category.

Congratulations to Dan, and glad you got your start here at WDI.
