Texas Bar Foundation - Augsburg University
Welcome
Dear student,
You are cordially invited to the tenth annual Minnesota Debate & Advocacy Workshop (MDAW) at Augsburg College. We welcome you to our middle school camp (5th – 8th graders) and are excited to introduce you to debate!
The staff of the Workshop draws from extensive and diverse experience. This year’s faculty includes former and current debaters as well as high school and college debate coaches, among others. Chosen for their dynamic teaching abilities and passion for policy debate, the staff was specifically chosen to provide the best and most educational experience possible for participating students.
The lead teacher for our middle school group is David Song – who is currently the Program Manager for the MN Urban Debate League. David comes to the MNUDL after five years of programming experience managing debate competitions and teacher training with the Chicago Debate League, during which the nation's largest urban debate league doubled in size. David has over a decade of debate teaching experience, and it will be his first time as the lead teacher for our middle school group. We are excited to have him on board!
Included with this introduction are three forms to complete and return. The middle school program runs from June 16th – June 20th from 9am – 5pm. Registration and check-in for the first day of camp will take place in the Foss Hall Atrium (please see the enclosed map) at 9am. Students can be picked up and dropped off at this location.
Students will eat lunch in the cafeteria at Augsburg and it will include a variety of food options. Please let us know if your child has any special needs for meals so that we can take care of them.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any additional questions.
Very sincerely,
Dave Cram Helwich Amy Cram Helwich
