Finals

Novices semis resolutions:
In this instance, gender discrimination is necessary. (used by Leland/Notre Dame)
The US Federal Government should enact term limits on Supreme Court justices. (used by Mira Loma/James Logan)
This House believes in internet “net neutrality.”

Novice finals resolutions
This House believes that we have an obesity problem. (used by Mira Loma/Leland).
The US Federal Government should enact a more forward thinking.
This House would abolish it.

The Supreme Court resolution is horrible because USFG can’t legally change the Constitution, which sets out the no term limits rule for justices. The obesity resolution was funny because the judge (not me) came in with a huge sandwich and was eating it during the round.

In varsity finals, BOD beat Lowell on a 3-0. Congratulations to all debaters, and I’ll have the formal post up by tomorrow morning.

SCU allows the option of becoming a 3 person team if one of the teammates can’t make it on a certain day. Lowell KR is the official team, but Lowell T had to add on for friday. Officially they are the Lowell RKT. Blast off!
