Time limit includes original introduction. Impromptu Counseling: Speakers will be given a brief counseling scenario and asked to adopt a “Dear Abby” or “Dr. Drew” approach in constructing a response to the question. Each speaker will choose one of the three scenarios (I know my brother is stealing funds from the family business; should I turn him into the authorities or keep it in the family?). Speakers will be given 7 minutes to divide between preparation and speaking time. Communication Analysis: A speech that is carefully researched and developed that applies a student’s knowledge of rhetorical communication principles to a communication event such as a speech, song, poem, movement, campaign, etc. This speech should pay primary attention to analysis and less attention to the description.

Manuscripts are to be used. Introduction and transitions should be delivered extemporaneously. Plays are not permitted. Maximum time limit: 10 minutes.
