The Middlebury Speech and Debate Union proudly requests your presence at
our second annual, Edwin R. Lawrence Parliamentary Debate
Tournament. Join us in our bicentennial year for what is sure to be a
phenomenal event, 200 years in the making. We will even exceed last
year's event, continuing to show you dazzling powerpoint, debate rounds in
our shiny new eight story science center, the "largest building in
Vermont," give you comfy beds to sleep in, and something alluring to
stimulate all five of your senses.
Come leaf peeping at the only college located directly between the
