Five students from Debsoc have been awarded NZ Universities Blues for debating for 2007: Sayeqa Islam, Christopher Bishop, Stephen Whittington, Polly Higbee, and Josh Cameron.

The NZU Blue is one of New Zealand’s most prestigious and long standing awards that recognises a University student’s performance in representing New Zealand at the annual pinnacle event of their sport whilst successfully progressing their academic studies.

Victoria was the only university to win blues for debating. Only seven students from Vic won blues, of which debating was five!
