WHAT IS FORENSICS?

Forensics offers students the opportunity to develop, refine and master communication skills. We mentor new speakers and guide seasoned competitors. In fact, SRJC has a 100-year history of developing first-time speakers and encouraging them to join the team.  Students on the team travel to intercollegiate tournaments locally and across the state.

So if you like to argue, convince, act or perform or if you want to debate or advocate, join us. 

Get transferable and repeatable units (Comm 52A or B), enroll and compete every semester, grow communication and performance skills, play and experiment with ideas, advocate for a better world, make memories and connections, travel to new cities and campuses, expand your worldview, enhance your resume for your career, transferring, and graduate school, and work to be a national champion… all in a supportive atmosphere!
