School of Communication Speak-Off
Date: April 4 at 3:30pm
The Speak-Off has been a biannual event for decades. Designed to showcase the talents of public speaking students, the Communication Department Speak-Off competition gives students the opportunity to show off their rhetorical and oratorical skills and inspire others through the power of their words. Competitors are provided with a basic topic related to communication and tasked with creating their ideas into a compelling and powerful 4-6 minute speech. Finalists are then chosen from an array of submissions by the coaches at the Comm. Studio and Public Speaking faculty, who go on to deliver their prose to a large audience of their professors and peers at the Speak-Off.
Any student that have taken SPC 2608 or is currently enrolled can participate.
