Rowan communication studies department holds second annual public speaking competition

On Thursday, April 24, Rowan’s Communications Studies Department held its second annual public speaking competition in Shpeen Hall where five students won a total of $3200.

Eight student finalists competed by giving a “TED-Talk” style speech for five to seven minutes on topics surrounding sustainability.

Four judges watched the speeches and picked out the winners.

The finalists spoke in a random order by picking up little cups with the numbered place they would go.
