Every year, collegiate forensics teams from around the nation gather together to celebrate the art of communication at several national tournaments.This year is a bit different. Given the national health crisis, we will only have the chance to compete at one of our two national tournaments this year. It's twice as important that we make our chance count. With your help, our college's best student speakers can attend this event for a chance to flex their acting, oration, and argumentation skills!

Your support is vital to the end of our season. The national tournament allows students to compete against other speakers across the nation, take a look at what speech and debate looks like in other states, and cap off their collegiate forensics careers on the two-year circuit by taking home a few trophies. As one of the top three forensics teams in Illinois, we have a good shot at taking home some impressive accolades.

Every donation you make helps bring students closer to putting their public speaking skills on display. Thank you in advance for supporting the Harper Hawk Speech & Debate Team!
