Judge Philosophy

 Clarity of speech is important to me as I am primarily a forensics coach.

Each team should have impacts that they weigh out.

In addition, all links must have impacts and all impacts must stem from a link. Making that clear to me is important.

For the affirmative:

It is the obligation of the affirmative to prove that their case outweighs the disads and the negative’s on-case arguments.

For the negative:

If the negative wins one stock issue and makes it clear that they have won that stock issue then the negative could win the debate for that reason.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
