LD November-December Topic

Here she is! Crazy to think we'll have to start thinking about this so soon...

2008 November/December Topic, presented by Lincoln Financial Group

Resolved: In a democratic society, felons ought to retain the right to vote.

University of Minnesota Tournament 10/10-10/11

Two notes:
1. There is not a separate JV division at this tournament. Varsity and JV will compete in one open division.
2. LD Novices are only competing on Saturday. Debaters in the open division will compete on both Friday and Saturday. Novices have the option of observing on Friday and there will be a sign-up for that. PF is only on Saturday.

CHANGES TO THIS LIST SHOULD BE E-MAILED TO LIZ BY 8 PM ON OCTOBER 7.
