A reprieve from the rain, but not from work

This morning the lab focused on presentation in and out of round. Our female students learned that debate tournaments are not picnics and guys learned that Axe body spray and Febreeze is not a substitute for a shower and washing your clothes. Additionally, the students each got to choose which elective they would attend tomorrow. After lunch the lab split into three groups, with each focusing on one of three areas: case writing, research skills, and creating blocks. After dinner, Erfon and Bekah volunteered to participate in a demonstration round. Being a policy convert, it was Bekah's first time in an LD round,. She and Erfon both did a great job. After the round, the students had a chance to share what they thought about the round. Practice rounds start tomorrow so hopefully the students get plenty of rest for the intense days that are coming.
