- Bancroft_Literary_Association_and_Carrollton-Wight_Literary_Society abstract "The Bancroft Literary Association and the Carrollton-Wight Literary Society are two competing forensic societies at the Baltimore City College. Founded in 1876 and 1878 respectively, the Bancroft and Carrollton-Wight Societies are the oldest literary societies at a public high school in the United States. Historically, the two societies competed mainly between themselves. That rivalry culminated each year with an annual debate. In the 20th century the societies began to compete with other schools. Their most notable rival was Baltimore Polytechnic Institute—City College's chief rival in sports and academics. The societies also competed against other high schools and even against several colleges.The Bancroft and Carrollton-Wight Societies disappeared for a time in the 1980s and early 1990s, but were revived in the late 1990s. The Bancroft Literary Association and Carrollton-Wight Literary Society now exist as the Baltimore City College speech and debate team. The Bancroft Literary Association competes in speech events which include Dramatic Interpretation of Literature, Declamation, Extemporaneous Speaking, and Original Oratory. The Carrollton-Wight Literary Society competes in debate events which include Student Congress, Lincoln-Douglas Debate, Policy Debate, and Public Forum Debate. Although, there are some students that participate in both societies, in general a rivalry persists between members of the two societies. However, except for rare occurrences the societies no longer compete directly, preferring to participate in interscholastic competitions.".
