Interp Information

Original Oratory and Interpretation Documentation

It is not necessary to upload any documentation this year, but if there is a protest, schools are expected to produce a flat copy of the speech/piece in question to the Ombudsperson in a timely manner. Schools are still expected to upload Title, Author and ISBN information for all registered interpretation pieces and Title information for OO & INFO by March 4th at 5:00 pm.

Interpretation - Students may use 100 words as transitional words/phrases. These words/phrases must be written legibly (in ink) on the flat copy of the script. Every word from the text that is used in the performance must be UNDERLINED or HIGHLIGHTED on the flat copy of the script. In case of a protest, the flat copy submitted must include every stipulation from above, along with a page number on each page used and a copy of the bibliographic page. It MUST also be an actual copy of a script - schools MAY NOT type their own copy.
