• Hearts: A person or persons important in your life.
• Diamonds: Something(s) important in your life.
• Clubs: Groups, organizations, or teams that you belong to or have been a part of.
• Spades: Anything in the world that you’d like to change, either on a personal level (I wish I could play guitar), local level (I wish our College had better parking), regional level (I wish I lived closer to a beach), or international (I wish the war would end).
• Jacks, Queens, Kings, Aces: Speech must speak for 3 minutes without any speech flaws.
• Jokers: Wild Card! Students can save Joker and forfeit their speech to a classmate they choose.
