Re: The Big Vision: [10] Looking Outside Quizbowl for Ideas?

I have participated in several Model UN competitions and most of the top programs in the nation have an elective class for Model UN where students prepare for conferences, do research on their countries, etc. (Centennial's MUN program is one of the few that doesn't have a serious class for it). Deba...

Re: 2014 HSNCT discussion

I've done a project on the chromatic number of the plane, can I see that tossup please? My team didn't attend so I didn't have the opportunity to hear it.

We have officially reached our first field cap of 24 teams! We will still accept registrations and expand if there is enough interest to warrant an expansion.

Re: (3/1/14) ATTACK III - Centennial HS (GA)

Field update 2/3, we're about half full. I asked my coach to send out a reminder that we have about a month left, so I will accompany that with a reminder here! We are half full, our trash tournament is nearing completion (most of the video game stuff is done), and everyone is looking forward to it!...

Re: HSNCT first-timer advice?

Study Canadian stuff. NAQT loves Canada. On a more serious note, studying harder level tournaments, like PACE NSC, or early-level college tournaments like ACF fall is a good idea. Be warned though that NAQT is more heavily geography, current events, etc. based, so be sure to study more of that if yo...

Re: BISB Specific Question Discussion

I thought the bonus was appropriate in that it didn't require any significant math computation and you should be able to get them from paying attention in math. ln 1 is a fairly basic identity, arctan 1 is easy for those who memorized the unit circle in precal, and since I haven't learned about seri...

Our school has an Orientation Day where all the clubs get space to try and attract incoming freshman, do you have a day like that and if so what do you do t...
