As another year comes to a close, it's time again to reflect on the time we've spent this year, in the Federalist Party, at Yale, and in the larger world.  Experiences have been shared, lessons learned.  For our seniors, the time has come to take the next great step and enter the wider world.  For our underclassmen, it's time to say goodbye.  As Ms. Rowling once remarked, however, "the ones that love us never really leave us."  

Our annual Senior debate gives the floor to our oldest and most experienced members.  Come hear their wisdom as they reflect on the best of times and the worst of times at Yale as well as in our beloved Federalist Party.
