Judging qualifications:
In all events listed above, I will first look for strong arguments. I do not believe the team with the most arguments should win, but the team with the strongest arguments will have my vote. I do not judge based on how "nice" a person sounds, but the content of what they are saying. I have watched all these events on a national scale and have competed in Congress at NSDA Nationals. I understand what it is like to be a competitor, though I do not hold a bias for any particular style. I do enjoy watching a more conversational style, but a competitor will not have my vote because they were or were not conversational.
Judging Philosophy
CX
Judging approach: Policy Maker
Policy priority: Resolution of substantive issues is more important than communication skills
Evidence philosophy: Quality of evidence is more important than quantity of evidence
Paradigm: One of the most important parts of a policy round is weighing the advantages and disadvantages. In evaluating any argument it is important the impacts are made clear, this is especially true in arguments of topicality.
LD
Approach: Resolution of substantive issues is more important than communication skills
Philosophy:
In LD criterion is an important role in the debate, but should be upheld by good argumentation through both aff and neg. I am a flow judge but will base the winner of the round on key arguments made.
