Description
Our Centennial Celebration continues with a look back on 25 years of Academic All American awards. We pay tribute to the vital role of speech and debate education in our NSDE Day recap. Cindi and Aaron Timmons make the case for embracing technology, promoting critical thinking, and expanding access to support the future of debate. Zach Prax outlines the process for selecting final round judges at Nationals and how coaches can get involved. Plus, we detail the one-year pilot program that will allow up to 25% of districts to test alternative National Tournament qualification methods next year. We honor another slate of Faces in the Crowd and congratulate the list of 2025-2026 Student Leadership Council nominees. And we feature more heartwarming stories from our members, including Mfaz Mohamed Ali, Molly McDermott, and Marcus Viney.
