<p>Is there a debate team/club at Caltech? If not, how hard is it to start a new club?</p>
<p>There is not, but starting a club is easy. Just find a bunch of people who are interested and then apply for ASCIT (student gov't) in the spring, which can be reasonably generous if a decent number of people is interested.</p>
<p>Thanks for the quick reply!</p>
<p>There used to be one, and I imagine you could find a few interested people. As always though, it's much less clear if a significant number of people would have enough time to devote to something like that.</p>
