description As part of the 1967 Auburn Conference on International Affairs (ACOIA), Auburn University and University of Alabama students held a debate on the topic of US participation in NATO. In this February 10, 1967 debate, the topic was 'Resolved: The United States should withdraw from NATO.' Auburn students Mary Fischer and John Schell took the affirmative position while Alabama students Barbara Gilmer and James Spencer took the negative. ACOIA was a regional conference, originally sponsored by the Auburn University Student Senate, on international affairs and social issues. Each conference focused on a specific theme and typically featured 5-10 speakers over a two- to three-day period. Circa 1970, the conference's format was changed to a series of speeches over a two- to three-month period; around the same time, the conference's purview was expanded to include domestic issues. In that connection, the conference's name was changed from 'Auburn Conference on International Affairs' to 'Horizons' in 1971. The Horizons lectures were organized by students on the Horizons Committee of the University Program Council (UPC) in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. Title supplied by metadata creatior.
