Last night, the eyes of the world were on Belmont University as they successfully hosted the final 2020 Presidential Debate in the middle of a pandemic. 

 “It’s good for us. It’s good for Nashville,” said Bob Fisher, President of Belmont, to WKRN News. “...We want to be a place where the absolute wonder of the American Democratic process is on display to the whole world.”

Belmont was chosen out of six finalists, including the University of Michigan and the University of Notre Dame. The event marks a major milestone for the university.
