with your “ballot.” In your email ballot, include the following: 1. Your Rating of each Debater (the scale is
1-30 but REMEMBER--most scores are 26 to 28; scores below 25 would be
considered very low, possibly mean). 2. Give at least 2 Comments on what each Debater
did well and 2 comments on what needs to improve on. Amy Smith is the Aff;
Katie Bergus is the Neg. 3. Your decision (affirmative or negative) and
which arguments that the debaters presented that convinced you. Jim or a climber will email you back within a day with comments on
your ballot. Return to Learn to Judge other Events Go to Part 3 Professional Judging
