Dear Colleagues,

You are cordially invited to the 56th annual JW Patterson Debates on September 26-28, 2026, which we will host on campus at the University of Kentucky. It looks like White Hall Classroom Building will be back and open for use! This year, we will offer Open, Wildcat, and Novice divisions of Policy Debate. We hope to see you in Lexington this fall!

Sincerely,
Kelsey Johnson
