[edit] Online Competitions
Each of the three following competitions consist of 8 events: Art, Economics, Essay, Language and Literature, Math, Music, Science/Social Science, and Super Quiz. These competitions are held online to ease execution, organization, and costs to both USAD and participating teams. The absence of Speech and Interview from the competitions logically follow this distance-testing scenario.
