Dear debaters,
thank you for your support so far with our new newsletter project. We want you to get the most out of these monthly snippets, so we've included a link to a small feedback form at the bottom of this letter and every newsletter in the future. Feel free to let us know what you would like to read in the future.
Have fun reading and see you next month!
Learning Materials From Our Past Workshops
Last summer semester, several of our experienced members held a total of six workshops on exciting topics such as "How to Prep" or "How to win as closing half". We have revised the handouts from all of these workshops and collected them in one place. Whether you were there last semester and want to revisit some of the topics, or just want to learn something new, this is for you. Note that these handouts are no substitute for the actual workshops.
