Big Questions

We will host a Big Questions tournament Saturday afternoon December 16, 2017.  Schedule to be posted soon.  The schedule is designed to allow any student who does not advance to elimination rounds in Public Forum or Congress to enter in Big Questions.

Entry fee is $10 an entry.  But we will certainly waive that if you were already in Public Forum.  And likely if you provide a judge for the three rounds of Big Questions we are likely to wave the entry fee.

We will use the 2017-2018 NSDA Topic:

Resolved: Humans are fundamentally different from other animals.

Information on Big Questions can be found here.

Format manual can be found here.

Resources, including full cases and evidence packets, can be found here.
