**Judging Philosophy:**

First and foremost I expect debaters to respect one another throughout the round. Failure to do so will result in low speakers points (especially in the case when an experienced debater is disrespectful towards a debater with less experience).

**Voting-** I tend to vote on Stock Issues but you can persuade me to vote differently. In your last speech I also prefer that you remind me as to why I should vote for you. For example bring up any dropped arguments, why your impacts outweigh, magnitude, timeline, etc.

**Speed-** No spreading!

**Evidence/Argumentation-** I prefer case-specific disadvantages vs. general ones. I also take into consideration the quality of evidence and analysis of it.

**Time-** I will time you but I also expect you to time yourself. During prep time I will let you know how much time you have left (30 second intervals).
