Answer three of the following questions in at least 75 words each. Please use proper English grammar and sentence structure.

Were you familiar with the story of the Wiley College debate team? Why do you think their story has not been told before?

At the start of the film, Professor Farmer reads to incoming freshmen from 1 Corinthians 13:11. Why do you think he chose that verse? How did it apply to the students?

Farmer also says "We do what we have to do, so that we can do what we want to do." What do you think that means? What things did the debate team "have to do"? What things did they gain the right to do?
