The Fultonian

Our long and rich tradition of excellence
To help keep our alums connected to Fulton Debate, the Society produces an annual newsletter calledThe Fultonian. All alums with an address on file with the Alumni Office can expect to receive The Fultonian at the end of the academic year.
The primary purpose of The Fultonian is to keep alums abreast of the Society's activities and, in the process, to document Boston College's long and rich tradition of excellence in debate. Some issues of The Fultonian also contain "Alumni Briefs," a page with news about the exploits of Fultonians since they have left the Heights.
