April 14th
The DAV is recruiting adjudicators to help with our school debating programs in 2024.
Becoming an adjudicator is a great way to continue developing your critical thinking and public speaking skills and provides opportunities to meet lots of new like-minded people.
Debating rounds are run on Monday-Thursday evenings from February to November, and adjudicators receive $45-85 (usually $64) for each round they attend.
