New to extemp? Need to brush up on economics? Interested in watching public policy professionals talk about the fundamentals of economics?

Look no further. Watch Grover M. Hermann fellow for Federal Budgetary Affairs at the Heritage Foundation, Brian Riedl, a Summer at the Center Guest Lecturer as he discusses some fundamentals of economics for extempers. This was part one of a five part series that Brian presented to Summer at the Center participants last summer.

This and other online videos are provided free of charge by the Summer at the Center and the Center for Public Speaking for instructional/educational use only.

What Cherian should also mention is what a great camp CPS is. For any of you considering extemp camp, you should really think about the Center for Public Speaking. It's at Macalaster College in MN (so I can attest to the campus' quality), and the instructors are second to none. There is both an advanced and a general division, so all skill levels can be accommodated. In the interest of full-disclosure, I will be working there this summer (as will Kate Rice, second at USX Nationals last year). But I am not being paid to say this. Quite the contrary, I really think it's an excellent opportunity to improve your extemp skills. Hope some of you all come!
