Speech schools that called can check in at the lobby of Lerner Hall, the side that is away from the street, starting at 8AM tomorrow morning.  You can pay your fees and get your wristbands there in advance of going to competition rooms.

We’re working on speech postings now and will publish them shortly.  We will publish judge assignments together with standby assignments, and the judging pools we are calling for elimination rounds Sunday.  Please note that some judges may be judging both speech and Congress.

Speech-only schools may register over the phone by calling (201) 233 4694 between 1pm and 9pm on Friday. Payment may be brought to the tournament Saturday morning if Friday is inconvenient.

Please remember to have your Varsity LD judges submit their paradigm to columbia@tabroom.com by the night of January 23rd. Numbers permitting, we
will be limiting the VLD pool to judges that have made a submission.

You can download all of the bills that will be used during the Columbia Invitational. The file includes the four bills that have already been posted.
