The IUPUI Speech Night competition is designed to present R110 students an opportunity to experience the best principles of oral communication and persuasion in action. R110 is an introductory college-level course in communication and rhetoric focusing on preparing, delivering and evaluating extemporaneous speeches. The IUPUI Speech Night involves its students more than at many similar events at other campuses. We recognize both the importance of speaking well and of judging wisely. Each class selects its best speaker who then participates in the semifinals, addressing an audience of peer judges. The students judged to be the best in each semifinal room are the finalists we shall hear tonight. The judging panel for tonight’s event consists of members of the R110 and Communication Studies Department’s faculty whose students are not finalists. The type of speech required for Speech Night competition is the speech on A Question of Policy. It is a motivational persuasive speech organized according to Monroe's Motivated Sequence. Contestants are judged based on their effective use of Monroe’s Motivated Sequence along with other presentational elements. There is a time requirement of 6.5-7.5 minutes.
