Chennai Worlds 2014 - Previous Attendance and Break Information
Overview
If you plan to register for the World Universities Debating Championship, please review this email.
The Chennai Worlds registration process prioritizes institutions according to the average number of teams from that institution that have made the break in any language category over the past 3 WUDCs. Furthermore, the process also limits institutions that have not sent a team to any of the previous 3 WUDCs to registering a maximum of 1 team this year.
Registration will open on Monday May 20, 2013, at 10am GMT. Registration will remain open for 24 hours.

Previous Attendance and Break Information
The following google document includes a) our list of all the institutions who have attended any of the prior 3 WUDC competitions and b) the number of teams those institutions have broken, in any language category, during those 3 years (the "break data" tab can be clicked at the bottom of the screen). If you would like either of these documents in PDF form, please let me know.
To the best of our knowledge, there is no central record of all the institutions that have attended WUDC before, nor a collection of break data. Thus it is possible that there may be errors in the data. We request the institution review the following documents and let us know if there are any mistakes. This includes mistakes to the name of your institution. It will be an enormous help to our registration process (and to registration for future WUDCs) if every institution is referred to in a consistent manner. Please do not provide a different institution name when you actually register on May 20.
Please email any corrections to [log in to unmask]. The sooner you let us know, the easier it will be to correct this information. The deadline for informing us of a mistake will be Friday, May 17, 2013. In your email, please let us know if there is a particular reason the information is incorrect (e.g. one institution is actually listed twice, but with different names).
Please let us know if you have questions. We look forward to seeing you in Chennai!
