Debate - NFA LD - Finals of Debate Cooperative

Lafayette CollegeImage via Wikipedia

See http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=922560E1D847F1A8

From John Boyer:

The final round from the 2009 NFA-LD Debate Cooperative is online. A special thanks goes out to Nick Garcia from the Ohio State University for recording and uploading this round. I expect more videos of the camp lectures to be uploaded in the coming weeks. Subscribing to Nick's youtube feed will ensure that you receive e-mail alerts when a new camp video is posted.

You can view the final round between Western Kentucky University's Frank Murdock (AFF) and Lafayette College's James Hilbert (NEG) here:

It is my hope that the video will provide an excellent instructional opportunity for NFA-LD debate. Students can watch the debate and practice evaluating it in terms of rendering a decision, in addition to just using the video for flowing practice.
