Vicki Stanton Public Speaking Showcase

The Vicki Stanton Public Speaking Showcase highlights COM 115 students presenting their best persuasive speeches. Students are able to take what they have learned from COM 115 and put into practice in front of both their peers and some Missouri State University faculty. There are two preliminary rounds in which all speakers give their speech once per round. Five finalists are determined from these rounds and then move on to the final.

"VSPSS is a great event because it shows what we—both students and listeners—have been working towards all semester." —2017-2018 MSU Graduate Assistant
