Academic Decathlon is the premier academic compeittion for high school students in the country, with a rigorous curriculum in Economics, Essay, Art, Interview, Language and Literature, Math, Music, Science, Social Science, and Speech. Students will be asked to consider these topics in relation to the 2009-2010 theme, "The French Revolution."�

�

We will be hosting the competition in Linsly-Chittenden Hall (63 High St, New Haven) at Yale University, and we would like to invite you to join us as judges, interviewers, and essay readers.�� This will be a great opportunity to interact with Connecticut students hailing from all parts of our state and help us celebrate academic competition as much as athletic competition is celebrated elsewhere.�

We are looking for 6 volunteers to judge essays, and about 20 volunteers to judge speeches and conduct interviews. No prior experience required, and training will be provided on site.�

Volunteers do not need to state a preference, and we would actualy appreciate that because it will give us the flexibility we need to fill all the necessary spots.� All assignments will be confirmed by 11:59 p.m. on Thursday, February 18th.�
