The St Andrews Union Debating Society is the oldest - and some might say finest - of its kind, founded in 1794. Nowadays, the Union Debating Society is a subcommittee of the St Andrews Students' Association. All matriculated students of the University of St Andrews are automatically members, and all of our events are free for them to attend.

St Andrews Debating Society EUDC Vlog 2022
Given that classical music concerts and theatrical entertainments began their existence to cater for a rich and educated clientele, it is no argument that in the current era, some of those 'elitist' traces linger. i.e. trainers, jeans and t-shirt are not considered suitable attire to attend Swan Lake, for example
Could there be better debate questions? Take a look at cambridge union. Cambridge union is debating about politics, what is this?
38:37 lol
I don’t usually watch debates but the title intrigued me, “yassification” 😭😭
I say we should determine voting power based on how much land you own. And it can progressively scale down a little bit, just to make things not too crazy.
Thanks so much for having me along!
This word ‘diversification’ must be removed from the English language. Oops - and Scotland too!
And this is why, this debating union would never reach the prestige of Oxford union.. not to say any of the opinions are invalid and that one cannot have his own opinions, but that these opinions have an incredible will to perversion and constant emphasis of the minuscule and irrelevant ‘underrepresented’. Which at least from my perspective, a so called member of the ‘underrepresented,’ could honestly give less of a shit whether whoever listens to what. Classical music is not elitist but something called beautiful, it is not that we foreign people have been oppressed to take these cultural norms, no no, we are simply pragmatists who know classical music, especially of the west, is the most superior on both composition and ideas. The only people who care about its ‘context’ as elitist are you lot of self loathing descendants. No one is offended by classical music except you, so please don’t use us as a victim. We are not puppets for your own opinion; ironically which is a very racist thing to assume.
This commentor finds it hard to believe that the professor's debate is not sarcastic 😂
This will discourage local ownership since the clubs' value will remain stagnant, causing banks to stop funding them. Foreign ownership is crucial for the success of any financial enterprise.
People saying classical music is elitist are elitist pricks.
Inspired soundtrack
Great video but that iced tea was shit
