Mission Statement As members of the forensics community, we believe that, to preserve the educational and competitive qualities of high school speech and debate events, each school should have access to the highest quality of evidence available. Because we feel that speech and debate events get students more involved in their communities, increase their knowledge of the world they live in, and develop skills they will need in life, we ultimately hope to get more schools involved in speech and debate, and to increase the involvement of less active schools.
The Forensics Files (TFF) is a limited liability partnership established in 2004. Our first year we started out producing topic files for Lincoln-Douglas debate. The following year we produced our first textbook. This year we have expanded our product line to include 3 more textbooks and workbooks, public forum topic files, CX topic files and classroom posters. We are currently working on expanding our poster sets to include public forum and IE posters.
Richard Colling (Partner & Co-Founder) is currently a teacher and debate instructor at Stony Point High School in Round Rock, Texas. He has coached debate for all 10 years he has taught high school. Richard has a bachelor's degree in Communications from the University of Houston, Victoria. He primarily works on researching and writing the LD files; he also completed the textbook, Winning LD Debate Tournaments, and designed many classroom posters.
Michael Ritter (Partner & Co-Founder) has a B.A. in Speech Communication from Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas and is a J.D. candidate at the University of the Texas (UT) School of Law. He transfered to UT from the University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law. Michael debated for three years in high school and for three years at Trinity University and advanced to out rounds at several tournaments. He primarily works on researching and compiling the CX products and has completed the textbooks Introduction to High School Debate and Logic and Moral Theories and Moral Obligations.
