Dear Debate Society Members,

I am Zsofia Sara Dara, a Global Law at the Queen Mary University of London in my first-year. This March I am applying for the position of Female Co-President of the Debate Society. 

As a first-year student, I have only recently joined the QM Debate Society, however, I wish to take a more active role in the society both as a debater and presidency member. 

In my high school years I was first the tournament manager and in my junior and senior year the president of the Milestone Debate Society. Thus, I do believe I have the experience and skills to be an adequate Co-President of the QM debate society. The Milestone Debate Society was voted the ‘best society’ at our school which I wish to achieve with the QM Debate Society as well. 

I am an approachable, ambitious, hard-working person with a passion for debate. My goals for the society are to both welcome new students introducing them to debate and to provide the opportunity for competitive debaters to prepare for tournaments. 

As an ex-member of the Hungarian national debate team, I attended numerous international tournaments which gives me a good insight into the preparation and experience of debate tournaments. I wish to use this experience to help society members flourish as competitive debaters. 

Furthermore, my vision for the society is to hold fun socials (in person when regulations allow) allowing the society members to get to know each other outside of debating as I do believe that having a lively and sociable society is essential. 

Kind regards,

Zsofia Dara
