Â鶹ÊÓƵ

Speech and Debate Team

Discover the power of your voice.

Want to become a stronger speaker, thinker, and communicator? We’re a great way to build confidence while competing against other colleges and universities. Whether you’ve done forensics before or are completely new to it, you’ll find a welcoming team that helps you grow and succeed.

Activities & Events

 

We compete in tournaments like debate, public speaking, quick-thinking speeches, and dramatic performances. You can choose how much you want to compete. We also meet weekly to practice skills like research, building arguments, speaking clearly, and performing with confidence. These events give you real-world experience and a chance to represent Â鶹ÊÓƵ.

 

Meetings & Time Commitment

 

We hold weekly team meetings and practice sessions, which we encourage everyone to attend. If you plan to compete in weekend tournaments, you should come to at least one practice each week to work with the team.
