Subject
Harvard Debate Competition; Maynard Holbrook Jackson High School
Description
Do you remember the 25 Atlanta students who made history over the summer when they returned home as champions after competing in the Harvard Debate Council’s annual residency? Well now one of them will be returning to the Ivy League as a student with a full scholarship. Osazi Al-Khaliq, an inaugural member of the Harvard Debate Council Diversity Project and a senior at Atlanta’s Maynard Holbrook Jackson High School, was one of the 935 students accepted through early action “from an applicant pool of 6,958 to the Class of 2023,” reports Harvard. The university believes that this was the most competitive early admissions cycle in the school’s history.
