We are expecting to have guests from China and perhaps India this upcoming year, and enjoyed guests from three different Chinese universities last year.</li> </ul>   <ul> <li>Round Robin Note: On Friday, February 10th, 2017, Pt Loma will also host a one day Round Robin Tournament of Excellence for NPDA style parliamentary Debate. We expect to limit the field to a dozen or so of the top teams in the nation.  Teams that placed first or second in the following areas for the previous year will receive automatic bids to the Round Robin – NPDA Final Round; NPDA Yearlong Sweeps; NPTE Final Round; PLNU Sunset Cliffs Final Round, PLNU RR Final Round. And as always we will extend an invitation to at least one top community college, whether they are represented in the earlier qualifying slots or not.  We realize that budgetary restraints and schedule conflicts will not allow all these teams to accept their bids this year.  We will fill the remaining slots by competitive bid from other top programs around the county.  We are inviting directors of forensics interested in being considered for this tournament to submit to me an electronic bid for one team by January 5th, including the names of the proposed debaters and critic, and the debaters’ record and significant accomplishments.    Please also send me a note by Wednesday, Janurary 5th if you qualify for an automatic bid, as to whether you will be joining us or not this year.</li> </ul>   <ul> <li>SDSU IE and IPDA Note: San Diego State University will also be hosting an Individual Event Swing this year on Friday, February 10th, 2017.  They are discussing the possibility of adding IPDA debate to their event. The Sunset Cliffs Classic IEs and LD will not start until around noon Saturday at PLNU, to allow our swing guests to catch up on their rest.</li> </ul>   <ul> <li>Electronic Debate Balloting this year: Mike Middleton has agreed to run debate tab for us in NPDA Parli, and will be using electronic ballots.  So judges for debate are required to have an electronic phone or tablet or lap top capable of receiving e mails to qualify as judges, and bring a charger please.  Judges should not be on line during the actual debate rounds though, for any reason, including but not limited to social media, fact checking, etc. . . You may flow on your electronic device if you are a judge. This added note from Mike:  Additional instructions about email balloting will be provided once registration has closed. However, please ensure that you supply an email address in the judge notes for each judge you enter AND please be sure it is an email that can access throughout the tournament.</li> </ul>   <ul> <li>Topic Areas and Recommendations:  The President’s Inaugural Address will be offered a few weeks prior to the tournament, and  we will continue to draw Parliamentary debate topics from the address for both the Sunset Cliffs and the Round Robin.  Coaches and students are invited to submit recommended topics for our consideration.  Those submissions should be in by February 6th, 2016.</li> </ul>   <ul> <li>Some noteworthy attractions of the Sunset Cliffs Classic include:</li> <li>Strong competition with diverse regional representation and quality judging.</li> <li>A picturesque ocean front campus.</li> <li>Two $3,000.00 scholarships for the top community college competitors (one each for debate & IE’s) for tuition remission at PLNU.</li> <li>A Sunday morning chapel for all interested coaches, judges, and/or students.</li> <li>Attractive trophies.</li> </ul>   We look forward to you joining us this year.  Please let me know of any questions or concerns.   Skip       Dr. Skip Rutledge, Director of Forensics Prof. Ashley Nuckels Cuevas, ADOF         <a href=\"mailto:skiprutledge@pointloma.edu\">skiprutledge@pointloma.edu</a> <a href=\"mailto:AshleyNuckels@gmail.edu\">AshleyNuckels@gmail.edu</a> Cell (619) 849-2391 Office (619) 849.3262     Special note on debate judges: Please enter judges’ e mail address for ballot dissemination, and Judging Philosophies for all debate judges through registration.  These added steps will help the tournament run more smoothly and on time, and provide a more pleasant round experience for debaters and judges alike.
