I am pleased to announce that the Wyoming Forensics Institute will return to the University of Wyoming this summer, 7/13-20.
As we are adapting to the reality of COVID-19, we are preparing for both the best and the worst: If we are able to safely hold events on campus, we will offer a one-week, practice debate intensive experience in Public Forum, Lincoln-Douglas, and Policy. Students will have 20 debates in 7 days and receive extensive feedback, both written and oral, from expert judges. If we are not able to hold events on campus, we are still dedicated to providing educational opportunities for you. In that case, we will hold an online camp over the same time period for a significantly reduced price. Fortunately, the University of Wyoming debate team is one of the most prepared institutions in the country to make this happen. Last fall, we hosted the first entirely online college policy tournament in the country. Due to our expertise at online debate, during the past few weeks we have acted as consultants for debate organizations as diverse as NSDA China, the Tournament of Champions, the National Debate Tournament, and many other summer debate camps as they have all considered or made an online transition. While we would vastly prefer to welcome you to a traditional brick-and-mortar summer camp, we are committed to provide an online alternative if that proves impossible, unsafe, or unwise. We will continue to monitor the evolving public health crisis and will keep you informed about our decisions regarding whether to host on-campus or online based on government and university recommendations. We hope to make registration available as soon as possible. At this time, recent events are slowing down almost all processes at the University. In the meantime, save the date: 7/13-20. Thank you and please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. Matt Liu, University of Wyoming director of debate [email protected]
