As I explained at the beginning of semester, one of the few department events that all students taking my courses are expected to attend is the Presentation Contest. this semester, we have launched a new system wherein a preliminary and secondary round will take place. Students in my Public Speaking course are required to attend two (2) of the two-hour preliminary round events, plus the Final Round event.

The final round date has not been announced, but the preliminary rounds will be held between 2pm and 6pm on Wednesday and Thursday May 11th and 12th, as follows:

Session 1:

Wed., May 11: 2:00-4:00pm, N407

Session 2:

Wed., May 11: 4:00-6:00pm, N411

Session 3:

Thurs., May 12: 2:00-4:00pm, G101-2

Session 4:

Thurs., May 12: 4:00-6:00pm, G101-1

If you are unable for some reason to attend, due to class or work conflicts, you MUST email me prior to the event and submit official documentation (such as your class schedule or work schedule) to the Office of the Dept. of English Language & Culture, IH341. However, if one of your class conflicts is related to a course in English Language & Culture, let the professor know and request excusal in order to attend the contest preliminary round.
