STUDENT CONGRESS ADDED TO THE KENTUCKY TOC.
The University of Kentucky is adding Student Congress to its list of
debate events. This adds another debate format to the already existing
TOC Policy Debate, Lincoln Douglas Debate, and Public Forum Debate. This
action is being taken with the enthusiastic approval and recommendation
of the current TOC Congress Directors in Florida: Jason Wysong and Lisa
Miller. They hardily recommend this move to Kentucky of the tournament
in Florida which they have directed for the last three years to Kentucky.
