hey, i'm megan! i debated for interlake (in wa state) from 2015-2016, and debated on the circuit for 2.5 years. i took the most pride in cutting new frameworks and developing t/theory positions, so here are my favorite positions i wrote over the years. if you are a small school/independent debater and have questions about debating without institutional support/any position i have up here, feel free to reach out on facebook.

thanks also to kris, katherine, and xave for invaluable help throughout my career.
thanks also to xave, katherine, and kris for invaluable help and guidance throughout my career & with many of these arguments.
 
===== aff cases =====
posting these mostly because i'm proud of the frameworks i cut--i don't expect the topical offense to be very useful! i always put a lot of work into cutting aff cases, insisted on cutting my own affs, and cared a lot about their frameworks. in chronological order:
 
[[Media:CD AC - Sen (Alta 2017).docx|CD AC - Sen (Alta 2017).docx]]
* sen fw about evaluative spaces.
* especially proud of the positive feedback loop argument in c3.
* this is the aff that got me my first w30 in a circuit round, so it holds a special place in my heart :)
* i also think that womens' education is super important and a really worthwhile cause w/ respect to solving virtually every global issue, like political stability/curing diseases/fighting climate change!
 
[[Media:CD AC - Rousseau (JF18).docx|CD AC - Rousseau (JF18).docx]]
* used this framework a LOT throughout my years on the circuit--it's [[Interlake AL (Alisa Liu)|alisa's]].
* something to note is that we made sure to diversify the contention offense so that we could develop multiple sources of offense versus any neg strat that was read.
 
[[Media:CD AC - Benhabib (SO18).docx|CD AC - Benhabib (SO18).docx]]
* huge fan of seyla benhabib's work & in my opinion, there's virtually no philosopher who gets more right than she does
* thanks to john for help with the plan and contention offense!
 
[[Media:CD AC - Butler (JF19).docx|CD AC - Butler (JF19).docx]]
* the aff i read for all of jan-feb, except the toc.
* i cut a util version of this aff too, but i'm prouder of the butler framework and enjoyed defending it more.
 
[[Media:CD AC - Markovits (JF19).docx|CD AC - Markovits (JF19).docx]]
* cut a new aff for toc--i wanted to read a deontological aff because i'd somehow never done that, but wanted to write a new framework
* my internship prof. and i had talked about nomy arpaly's book and i found julia markovits through researching kantian applications of nomy arpaly's work on praiseworthiness/motivational internalism
* i think it's very cool that the authors in the framework are all women philosophers with innovative readings of kant!!
