Spend your summer at UTNIF and get Harvard experience at a Texas price.
- OUR STAFF BRINGS YOU THE BEST DEBATE EXPERIENCE FOR THE MONEY. Our policy debate program boasts five faculty members connected to the Harvard debate program, eight participants and/or coaches in college's prestigious National Debate Tournament, and three Cross-Examination Debate Association national champions— all brought to you at a very competitive price!
- NO OTHER CAMP CAN OFFER YOU THIS BALANCE BETWEEN POLICY DEBATE AND CRITICAL INNOVATIONS. JUST CHECK OUT OUR STAFF!
- 6,000 PAGES OF TOP-QUALITY, TOURNAMENT-WINNING EVIDENCE IN YOUR POCKET. Our CX programs offer you the ability to take home all of the evidence produced at both sessions of the camp on a CD-ROM that costs less money than checking a tub. Take a look at a portion of the starter pack each student received last year: Extraordinary Rendition Aff/Neg [PDF] [MS Word]
- PERSONAL TRAINING, NOT LONG LECTURES. Unlike many camps you will not have to learn to sleep through hours of lectures nor will you be left in the library for hours on end to fend for yourself. You will be the focus of your lab leaders and the entire staff of the UTNIF. We believe in small groups and practicum based skills work.
- WE BELIEVE IN TESTING YOUR SKILLS. We will give you the opportunity to implement everything you learn through intense debates judged by highly qualified lab leaders.
- WHEN YOU COME TO UTNIF YOU WILL BE DEFINING THE FUTURE OF DEBATE. We do not believe in cookie-cutter arguments. You will master agent counterplans but you will win your first tournament on arguments developed here and NOWHERE else.
- ONE OF THE TOP RESEARCH LIBRARIES IN THE COUNTRY. There is not a topic which you can exhaust in one summer at the University of Texas Library System.
