Description
In this issue, we highlight the legacies of NSDA Board President Pam Cady Wycoff and Vice President Dr. Tommie Lindsey, Jr. We speak with Student Leadership Council members Nicholas Ostheimer and Sam Chen about the power of student-led organizations to help make speech and debate more equitable. We chat with Matt Huber, Nationals Stage Manager, who comes back each summer to give back to an activity that has provided so much. Barb Ixba shares how speech and debate was her ticket out of poverty as a student, recently returning to her first love of coaching after serving as a school administrator. We also share lesson plans and tips for gaining local press, along with highlights from district leaders about their speech and debate journeys. Plus, we reflect on the life and impact of NSDA coach Tim Sheaff.
