On Wednesday, October 6th, elections were held for the vacant positions of Vice President (Debate) and Novice Representative.  We are proud to announce that Jessica Scorpio will be your new VP Debate, and Dan Meester will be the new Novice Representative.

As VP Debate, Jessica is in charge of the internal activities of the society as well as planning our tournament excursions.  She can be reached at vpdebate@carletondebate.org.

As Novice Representative, Dan will have a say in who gets to go to tournaments, as well as representing the concerns of new members to the executive.  He can be reached at novice@carletondebate.org

Business Meetings are open to all members of the Society.  They occur on Wednesdays at 5:30pm in 520 Southam Hall.

October 29 – 31 will feature the Chancellor’s Cup at Queen’s University in Kingston.  This will most likely be the last tournament we will be attending this Fall semester.  The tournament will be in Canadian Parliamentary style and also has a French language division if you would like to debate in French.

To put your name in for this tournament, contact vpdebate@carletondebate.org by Wednesday, October 13th.

The Xerxes Cup, our annual high school tournament, will be taking place November 19 - 20.  To run this tournament, we need all the help we can get.  If you would like to volunteer to help out, contact the Tournament Director, Greta Hall at xerxes@carletondebate.org.

Please note that members who have been subsidized by the club to go to tournaments are expected to help out.
