<p>My debate background is in policy. I debated in Dallas/Fort Worth for three years in high school and debated for the University of North Texas for two years. Since competing, I have been coaching for a number of&nbsp;years now - one year at the University of Central Oklahoma, two years at Wichita State University, one year at Johnson County Community College, three years at Kansas State University, and now this is my second year with Lenoir-Rhyne doing parliamentary debate - primarily NPDA and IPDA.&nbsp;</p> <p>Evaluating debate is much more about the participants establishing the preferred parameters than my own predispositions. I would like to consider myself &quot;tabula rasa,&quot; or at least as much as I can consciously make myself. My inherent predispositions are towards technical argumentation and clash. Most debaters would be well received by doing impact analysis that utilizes the internal components of the debate and contextualizing those arguments through&nbsp;the &quot;agreed upon,&quot; or rather debated,&nbsp;means for how I as the critic should evaluate this specific debate. I think cross-examination and points of information should be used more for strategic purposes than clarification. I think credibility matters, but believe the debaters should tell me how and what credibility means in a given context. I think civil, level headedness is valuable, but I would gladly listen to arguments to the contrary. Humor is always a good thing for&nbsp;me, but be good at it. Display confidence and find your voice.&nbsp;Beyond that, please feel comfortable to ask me more specific questions.&nbsp;</p>
