The Bethany Lutheran College Speech Team, Mankato MN

Once again Bethany is hosting the PLUM tournaments (Parliamentary League of the Upper Midwest) for the sixth season.

We also plan once again, for the fifth year, to host the first weekend all-parliamentary-debate tournament in the upper midwest, the THBT Classic, on Friday and Saturday, November 15 - November 16, 2002.
