SPECIAL TO THE BULLETIN
news@brownwoodbulletin.com
Howard Payne University’s
speech and debate team,
the Student Speaker Bureau,
recently hosted the Fall
2012 Texas Intercollegiate
Forensics Association state
championship tournament.
HPU received several honors
including Debate Sweep-
stakes and second place
overall.
The university hosted 19
institutions from Texas and
other southern states and
almost 200 people, includ-
ing competitors, coaches
and judges. With 31 teams
competing, the event had
the largest Fall TIFA debate
participation ever.
“Hosting this tournament
for the first time on the HPU
campus was a privilege and
everything went smoothly,”
said Dr. Julie Welker, chair
of the communication
department and Student
Speaker Bureau (SSB) coach.
“We were delighted to have
so many guests on campus
competing.”
HPU had the top two
debate teams, winning the
Debate Sweepstakes. The
teams were comprised of
Jake Aschmutat, a senior
from Corpus Christi, and
Ben Palmer, a junior from
Van; and Katie Rose Bonner,
a sophomore from Lytle,
and Catherine Mullaney, a
junior from Boylston, Mass.
The SSB’s second place
overall win included points
earned from debate and
individual events. Indi-
vidual scores are as follows:
Aschmutat, second place
Parliamentary Debate Speak-
ing, fifth place Impromptu
Speaking, sixth place
Impromptu Speaking; Bon-
ner, third place Persuasive
Speaking, fifth place Persua-
sive Speaking, Impromptu

thy Hardy, a junior from
Corpus Christi, fifth place
Parliamentary Debate Speak-
ing; Palmer, seventh place
Parliamentary Debate Speak-
ing, Impromptu Speaking
semifinalist; and Mullaney,
ninth place Parliamentary
Debate Speaking. Also com-
peting were Marcos Cor-
ley, Sarah Owens, Kaleigh
Tankersley, Jessica Ramirez
and Done Walton. Kim Bry-
ant, associate professor of
communication, also served
as coach.
“I’m so proud of our
team’s winning performance
at this tournament,” Welker
said. “It’s always nice to win
but especially when you get
to win on your own turf.”

who should have resigned.
Neither school board members or
Superintendent Dr. Reece Blincoe made
any immediate response to Walker’s
statements.
Later, Evans said the board has mis-
understood nepotism policy, and once
district officials realized the district
was violating nepotism laws, his niece
resigned. “There are no ramifications,”
Evans said.
Evans said the district had believed
it was permissible for Evans’ niece to
work for the school district as a class-
room aide, since an aide is not hired
by the school board. But the district
went on to learn from school attorneys
that because the county’s population
exceeds 35,000, her employment as a
classroom aide does violate nepotism
laws.
Evans said his niece had been work-
ing as a substitute teacher, and was
hired as a classroom aide at Northwest
Elementary School after the school
year started. “I didn’t even know she
had been called,” Evans said.
“She resigned and will seek other
employment.”

ending homelessness in

Understanding homeless-
ness in rural communities
requires a more flexible
definition than applied
to urban areas. There are
fewer shelters in rural areas,
therefore people experienc-
ing homelessness are less
likely to live on the street
or in a shelter. They are
more likely to live in a car,
camper, storage building or
with relatives in overcrowd-
ed or substandard housing.
It has been shown that few
job opportunities, lower
wages and longer periods of
unemployment often plague
the rural poor. Efforts to
