The Research, Drills, and Rounds Continue

In the morning, the students heard a few more lectures on kritiks. While their knowledge of these arguments is very raw, we will increase their ability to debate with them in a practice round we have later tonight. As a requirement of the practice round, the kids will have to go for a critical argument of their choice so that both the affirmative and negative team get practice debating the arguments.

In the afternoon, the students are continuing to do research on the files that their lab leaders assigned to them. While researching can be strenuous, the students are doing a good job of working hard and continuing to find useful articles to use in our debate rounds. Camp is half way over, and the staff are happy with the progress the debaters are making.
