The First meeting of the UTA Debate Society was very successful! Individuals from all backgrounds and interests came together to discuss this new and exciting program. We were able to become acquainted with each other and do an introduction to the British Parliamentary format. After our discussion we were able to decide about the structure and progression of the program. So what was decided!
I. We are going to progress into the BP Format. A good resource for anyone that is interested in researching the format is the link to the BP Guide on the Blog.
II. For the next meeting anyone that would like can prepare a 2 minute speech on any topic.
III. This is going to be a fun and active organization! Sauna parties and potlucks will be planned A.S.A.P!
IV. We need to be active when not meeting. Become a follower of the blog. Use the resource links. Ask me questions!
V. The next meeting will be in the Language Center on February 2nd in room E301. Bring your friends or people in your courses that could be interested in the society! Recruitment is what is going to help this society grow!
REMINDER!!!!!
There will be a show debate given by the Helskini Debate Society. It is going to be held at Tampere University in Pinni LS B1096 at 16.00. Everyone that is able should come and see the BP Format in action! Bring your friends and I will see you there!
