Queens College Speech Society is the speech and debate team at Queens College. Students compete in public speaking, drama, oral interpretation, and debate tournaments throughout the Northeast and across the nation.
We are looking for volunteers to help judge speech rounds at our inaugural speech camp for high school students throughout June and July.
Additionally, we will need volunteers for our tournament which will occur at our campus on Sunday, September 27, 2020. At this tournament, we will feature all 11 AFA-NIET Individual Event Speeches, as well as, International Public Debate, two-person Parliamentary Debate, and NFA-LD Lincoln Douglas Policy Debate.
Volunteers are encouraged to stay for the duration of the day for both opportunities (8:30AM until 5:30PM) and we will offer coffee and light refreshments.
You do not need previous experience in public speaking, debate, or acting to volunteer. Just come and I will be happy to receive you. Please let me know if you are able to assist us.
Thanks.

Mission Statement
The mission of our team will be one that recognizes the importance of forensics by shaping eloquent and intellectual public speakers. We will accomplish this by engaging in acts of public discourse, rhetorical criticism, persuasion, research, and oral interpretation. This is a unique student-run organization where team members can develop public speaking skills through dedication, practice, and participation. In addition to competing within intercollegiate speech competitions, the QCSS will seek to sponsor, organize, and run speech and debate tournaments, community service projects, and fundraising that are in the best interests of public speaking. We welcome all who share our core values to come visit us at the Student Union and take part this in wonderful new chapter for the Queens College Speech Society.
Description
This is an academic student organization. As such, the team offers skills to Queens College students that are necessary to confidently and effectively communicate in any situation. This activity teaches students to research, write, and deliver valuable messages in a wide range of topics. By participating in this program, members of the QCSS will follow current events, engage in critical and rhetorical discourse, immerse into a wide-array of fiction and non-fiction literature, and will master persuasion at various intercollegiate speech and debate tournaments.
