2022 10^th Annual Voices of Change Speech Contest

Because of the increase in COVID-19 cases, the Voices of Change Speech Contest will not have an in-person event in 2022. We hope we can continue our annual event in 2023.

Co-sponsored by the Department of Communication Studies and Campus Life, the contest will feature exemplary persuasive speeches from the top five class representatives of 2021 public speaking classes. Created to celebrate the vision and legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr., speech topics will be varied, will reinforce King's advocacy of change through civil dialogue, and will hopefully compel the audience to take personal action for the betterment of themselves and/or society.
