Judge Philosophies and Preferences

Like in prior years, we will offer a mutually preferred judging system in Varsity Policy and Varsity Lincoln-Douglas. We will not offer a strike system in World Schools. We hope to have preferences and strikes activated by the Tuesday morning prior to the tournament and they will be due by 9pm CT on the Friday before the tournament. All judge philosophies must be available on tabroom.com. Failure to have a judge philosophy for all your judges may result in the tournament not honoring the preferences or strikes. We encourage individuals who are judging World Schools to enter a philosophy as well outlining their experience, and preferences,  in adjudicating World Schools debate.
