About Debate
Debate is funded by AUTSA but editorially independent from both AUTSA and the university — and it keeps them both accountable. This means it can report freely on student issues.
Having a flick through Debate is a great way to keep up to date with what's happening on campus. Past coverage includes local elections, student wellbeing inquiries, and AUT job cuts. You'll also find feature articles, short stories, photography, artwork, gig guides, and giveaways for things to do around Tāmaki Makaurau.
Debate is free to read online and in print across AUT campuses.
