Subject: Re: Westminster/Last TOC qualifier
After conversations with Mr. Eric Brannen @ Westminster and Dr.
Patterson at UK, here is the situation regarding the last TOC qualifier:
(1) Westminster is unable to host (this year only) due to
problems w/ scheduling at Westminster.
(2) Mars Hill (Florence, AL) will host the TOC qualifier at
the semifinalist level on March 6-7. Mars Hill was one
of the original qualifiers for TOC when they began
years ago.
(3) Rounds will start around 3 p.m. on Friday. I will make
every effort to obtain highly qualified college judges
(coaches as well as college debaters) to supplement our
judging pool.
(4) There will only be one division of debate: varsity policy.
We will be unable to host LD due to lack of room availability.
(5) We will include traditional southern hospitality, similar
to that offered at the Southern Bell at MBA.
(6) I shall try to post a complete invitation to this list by
early next week and will take copies to the Barkley
Forum at Emory.
(7) Re: flight arrangements. I suggest those flying in from any
significant distance look at flying into Nashville or
Birmingham and then driving to Florence (about 2 hrs) or
you might get lucky and get good rates into Huntsville
(1 hr). I would not recommend flying in to our local
airport via commuter.
(8) Motels are very reasonable, usually around 40-45 per night.
Jameson Inn is closest to campus (5 mins or less) and
near numerous eating establishments. Other area motels
(complete info coming in the invitation) include Holiday
Inn, Ramada Inn, Howard Johnsons, Best Western Executive
Inn.
Please e-mail me if you think you might be interested in attending this
last TOC qualifier for the season.
Thanks.
