Our recruitment process is quick and simple! Each fall, we hold several information sessions for interested individuals to get a sense of what the team is like and the style of debate we compete in. We then hold tryouts where you’ll give a several minute speech in rebuttal to a short argument that we present to you. Afterwards, you’ll give an impromptu speech on a fun topic. We will also have some social events so that we will get to know each other better.
Come check us out at the Student Activities Fair on East Campus! We look forward to committed members from all years join us for tryouts! In the meantime, if you have questions, please contact Emily Zou at emily.zou@duke.edu.
