Get in the Halloween Spirit: Judge Debates at MNUDL’s Halloween-Themed Tournament

submitted by froehlic@augsburg.edu

The Minnesota Urban Debate League, a program of Augsburg University, is seeking volunteers to judge debates this Friday (virtually) or Saturday (in person at Roseville Area High School.)

By judging debate, you’re helping students gain crucial academic skills like argumentation, critical thinking, reading comprehension, public speaking, and more. Plus, it’s a chance for them to gain confidence, collaborate with teammates, and take pride in representing their schools in a fun and competitive setting!

The tournament will have fun Halloween activities like a costume contest, treats, painted bowling pin trophies, and spooky vibes.

No debate experience is required to judge for the MNUDL. We’ll train you!

Need a ride? Our grant through the AmeriCorps Volunteer Generation Fund allows us to provide transportation to tournaments, if this is a barrier to your participation. If you need a ride to judge at Roseville Area High School, let our Volunteer Coordinator, Johan, know at udlvolunteers@augsburg.edu.

We hope to see you there!
