Students in Debate Class each chose a person to emulate and be that person in a Town Hall format.  They interviewed that person, dressed up like that person, conducted research regarding this issue, and then participated in a Town Hall Meeting relevant to MHS Policies.  Students were Jeff Erickson, Rob Virgin, Josh Stephan, Lisa Wagner, etc.  Students argued in the town hall as if they were that person; taking his/her perspective.
