MSU Students

First and foremost, Spartan Speech is a club that was built by students for students. Our primary mission is to promote speech activities in the state of Michigan, which means promoting them here at the collegiate level too. Spartan Speech grows every year due to the welcoming of freshman students who once competed in our annual tournament.

If you are a speaker, actor, mentor, performer, writer, rhetorician, or simply have a genuine interest in public speaking: this is the perfect club for you. As a club, we understand how busy college schedules are, so we like to suggest that you get involved only as much as you want to. No matter how you participate you will be awarded full-member status, but we feel you "get from Spartan Speech what you put into it".

There are plenty of ways you can get involved with what we do. Since we are a registered student organization, the sky is the limit with what kinds of activities we can participate in: collegiate tournaments, coaching workshops, banquets for high school state finalists, and so much more. All it takes is a little heart and elbow grease. As for more conventional involvement in the annual tournament, you can find that information below.
