Prospective Novices

Welcome Prospective Novices to the Chicago Debate Society Blog! We would like to invite you to a few different events: 

On Friday, September 26th, we will be having a CDS Open House in the South Lounge of the Reynolds Club from 2-3 pm. President Ben Field and members from our team will be holding an informal meeting, where you can learn some information about what we do and ask any questions you may have. 

We will also have a table at the RSO Fair on Friday, October 3nd, so please stop by if you have more questions or would like to meet more of the members. We will be happy to chat with you about debate or anything else you might feel like. 

Our first official practice is Sunday, October 5th on the first floor of Cobb. This will focus on you, the novices. We'll have lots of information for you, including an overview, a demo round, and a Q&A section. 

We're excited to meet you and hope you decide to join the Chicago Debate Society. Feel free to come to any and all of our events where you'll learn what we do, how we do it, and why you definitely don't want to miss out.
