1) Meeting Locations
We have a location for tomorrow's debate meeting. We will be meeting at 7pm in Fenn Lounge, just off of Res Com. For the meeting this Friday we have yet to confirm a location but that will be determined shortly. With the strike now over we hopefully will have regular rooms booked by next week. Keep checking our Facebook group, website and your e-mail for more details.
2) Novice Training Day
Our Novice Training Day will be taking place this Saturday here at Carleton University. It will start at 9:00am and should be done by 4:00pm. We will have two world champions giving seminars in the morning and following a free lunch, we will be having debate rounds in the afternoon. It promises to be a great day and a fantastic chance to learn from, literally, the best in the world. All experienced debaters are encouraged to attend this fantastic event.
3) World's Selection
This year CUDS will be sending one team to the World Universities Debating Championships (WUDC) in Thailand. We are currently looking for applicants for this tournament. Those interested in applying must submit their best three university debating results to
exec@carletondebate.org by 4pm on Saturday September 22nd. We also encourage all novices who are interested to apply for World's. Don't worry about the lack of results as the more important component is the debate-off. Once all applications have been received, a time and place for the debate-off will be selected. If you have any questions please consult the WUDC Selection Policy of CUDS found
here. Also please feel free to contact the executive via e-mail if you have additional questions.
4) Novice Tournament at York
This year's Central Canadian Novice Championships will be held at York University on the weekend of September 28th to 30th. This tournament is only for new debaters and we encourage all novices to attend. It traditionally is one of the most fun weekends of the year and York is going to put on a great show this year. We will be leaving Friday morning from rescom and will return Sunday evening to Carleton. For all those who want to attend please e-mail
exec@carletondebate.org or sign up on the CUSIDnet thread. We need to know numbers ASAP so the sooner the better.
5) Tournament Sign-up: BP Championships in Edmonton
This years British Parliamentary Championships will be hosted by U of A in Edmonton on the weekend of November 2nd to 4th. We will be flying to this tournament so we need to know numbers as soon as possible. We encourage anyone who would be interested to sign up on the relevant CUSIDnet thread or to e-mail
exec@carletondebate.org. Any debater who is interested is encouraged to apply, regardless of experience or skill.
