Hi, I help with PF and LD at a local high school. I've judged virtual PF and LD, and that seems simple enough. I may have judged a virtual student congress round, but I do not remember how speakers were selected and how exactly they were run.
Specifically, how were speakers selected? As various public schools have different re-opening plans, we may have to have virtual tournaments but I am not quite sure how to run student congress virtually.

Hi! I'm an Oregonian who's going to compete in a California tournament, but I looked at the docket, and instead of seeing full legislation, I just found simple resolutions, like three whereases long. Can anyone tell me how that's supposed to work? Thanks a lot.

Sorry for the confussion and slowness the past few weeks but look at the site and see what's new
So over the past few years I’ve figured out what I want to do with my life and I’ve started putting things on motion to start it up. Anyways, I’m very burnt out. I have a meet in 2 days and I’m running for P.O. I’m so tired, and burnt out. I don’t wanna disappoint my team or my coach, but I’m exhausted. Any suggestions?
Check out the update and keep an eye out for upcoming changes.
