<p>can anyone plz elaborate on this. i greatly appreciate any help thanks.</p>
<p>extremely hard to get. Go to the barkley debate and the top winner of LD varsity will get the award. btw, the debate is in two weeks.</p>
<p>uh, you mean the top policy debaters? there is no LD in college; even if there were, the barkley forum is a bigger deal for policy debate.</p>
<p>The Barkley Forum is a huge national tourney for high schoolers. I'm quite sure it has LD and Policy, among other events. I'm not sure who the award goes to. I know Emory is known for its intercollegiate policy debate though.</p>
<p>There is exactly 1 Barkley Debate Scholarship per year.
Good luck!</p>
<p>i know what the barkley forum is; and yes, it does have both events. however, it is impossible to compete in LD at a collegiate level (the form of debate simply does not exist). thus, the scholarship will go to an outstanding high school policy debater.</p>
<p>while there might not be LD at Emory, there is actually collegiate level LD. Scroll to the middle of this man's resume.</p>

<p>Just FYI for anyone who is interested in collegiate LD.</p>
<p>Go here for NFA Lincoln Douglas collegiate topics for this year. <a href="http://cas.bethel.edu/dept/comm/nfa/nfa-ld.html%5B/url%5D">http://cas.bethel.edu/dept/comm/nfa/nfa-ld.html</a></p>
<p>Maybe another college will sponsor an LD scholarship one day?</p>
