Debate
There are two different types of debate- Team Policy (TP) and Lincoln-Douglas (LD). TP is two two-person teams debating a policy resolution. LD is two individuals debating a value resolution. For details on the smaller differences between the two, visit the NCFCA's debate page.
SOAR Debate
This year SOAR is offering Team-Policy debate. This class will focus on learning the fundamentals of debate from the beginning issues- the layout of the round, case construction, the burdens of both sides, and general strategies, and as the year progresses we will move on to more advanced techniques. We will not only learn theory, but will spend quite a bit of time practicing and making this theory second nature. There will be some homework, but minimal, only an hour or so a week, more or less depending on the individual and the assignment for the week.
