SPEECH AND DEBATE FOR ALL.

Our Inherent Privilege

Mia Tschan | 5/15/24

"...it’s not enough just to recognize our privilege. We have an obligation to help pay that forward to advance equity in other schools throughout our communities. "

Keeping Impromptu, Impromptu

Nex Bortnick | 5/8/24

"To the people such as myself who do impromptu as a main event it is frustrating to be beaten out by someone who did not compete fairly. Putting in the work to create something different each time is honest and fair to everyone, but we are competing in a limited prep event against people who have done prep!"

Un-Original Oratory

Mia Tschan | 5/1/24

"Ten minutes to persuade a person to change their entire worldview? That’s absurd! Even so, that’s what a good oratory can accomplish. Champions aren’t made in between the lines—they’re made on the edges. Innovate, experiment, but most importantly, remember to have fun—and please, don’t write an un-Original Oratory!"
