<p> I have been doing NDT/CEDA policy debate since 1991. I debated for four years at the University of Utah, assistant coached for 6 years at the University of Kansas, and I have been the Director of Debate at Idaho State since 2001. I am fairly open to any type of well explained and warranted arguments. I like it when debaters provide a good meta analysis in rebuttals. I can generally flow unless you are extremely blippy and very fast. I like both policy and critical arguments. I think the debaters should debate about the rules of debate. So I am open to procedurals and framing arguments. I want the rebuttals to write my ballot for me. I also vote on defense but prefer offense. </p> <p> </p>
