Please be civil and clear in your speech. I'm not a fan of spreading or Kritiks. I appreciate clearly outlined contentions and organized arguments.

Lay/Parent Judge: A public librarian, word nerd, mother of two awesome teens who values positivity and kindness.
For Speech: Please time yourself and speak in a cadence that I can follow. Be engaging.
For Debate: Keep it clear and simple, no LD jargon. I cannot judge fast rounds; I need to be able to understand and comprehend what you are saying. I value well-crafted arguments, supplemented with warrants. And evidence (for PF). Above all, be respectful and kind to your opponent.

In debate rounds I expect:
Organization
Sign-posting
'Clash' as needed
Professional Behavior
In debate rounds I have difficulty with:
Spread (overly rapid delivery) - Due to tintinitis (ringing in the ears) I cannot fully understand 'spread' and thus if I cannot understand what the competitor is saying, I cannot give credit for what is being said, or the ability to 'flow' my notes so that I can judge accurately.
In Individual Event rounds I expect:
To hear a 'well polished' speech.
Civility always. Ethical frameworks > than economic ones (i.e. people over profit).
Harmful, racist, profane or inflammatory language is intolerable.
I respect sound reasoning and articulate rationale, passionate argumentation in pursuit of the highest good.
