Official page of North Dakota State University's Speech and Debate team. Speech and debate has a long and proud history at NDSU.

The team has hosted the AFA-NIET (1987), and the Pi Kappa Delta National Tournament and Convention (1999). We are members of Pi Kappa Delta, the National Forensics Association, and the American Forensics Association. As a comprehensive program, we compete in speech events and Parliamentary Debate. If you would like to join the team, observe, or judge at one of our tournaments, contact Taylor McMillin director of the NDSU Lincoln Speech and Debate Team at [email protected]
