There has been a MASSIVE decrease in Binghamton Speech and Debate's budget for the 2015-16 academic year. The Student Association cut 100% of our SA budget.

The sudden decrease in funding will make it VERY difficult for our team to function and to send our teams to compete and travel next year. The lack of funding will also hinder our ability to have public debates, online debate tournaments and continue the legacy of Binghamton Debate.

However, this money CAN BE RECUPERATED, but our debate team needs as much support as it can get. We are presenting at the Student Congress on April 13th and will be appealing the Student Association decision that revoked 40% of our funding. If you can share, comment, and help support Binghamton Speech & Debate during this time, we would really appreciate it.

We are looking for support from Binghamton Debate Alum, Binghamton Students, Debate Coaches, Academics and other debaters. Thank you!

- Sincerely, Binghamton Speech and Debate.
