Kritikal Discussions Summer Camp is a FREE, week-long ONLINE debate program focused on Lincoln-Douglas (LD) debate. Running from August 2 to August 6, the camp offers comprehensive instruction and practice opportunities. Our mission is to make high-quality debate education accessible to all students, regardless of their educational background or location.
Our instructors are successful debaters on the national circuit level. You’ll be learning from national debate champions, including debaters who won the TOC, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Sunvite, and Ridge.
Whether you're a beginner, a JV debater looking to learn progressive arguments, or a varsity competitor aiming to secure a bid, we have courses suitable for EVERYONE. We place students into labs at their level and offer a variety of electives to tailor our curriculum to students' needs.
Our camp is completely FREE and fully ONLINE, allowing students from all regions and backgrounds to participate. This format supports our mission to expand access to high-level debate education for everyone.
With the interactive courses we offer, including labs, electives, practice rounds, and demonstration debates, students stay actively engaged and consistently challenged.

Chupeng is a rising senior heading into his 3rd year in varsity debate. He mainly reads theory and phil arguments. He debates in both the national and local circuit, reaching elims at Harvard, Sunvite, UDDL, Nova Titan, Constellation, and others. Outside of debate, he enjoys playing the saxophone and piano, grinding video games, and doing random things (then stopping the next day lol)!
