The Rotary Club of Solon held its annual “Four Way Test Speech Contest” on March 7.  Four Solon High School students (identified with the assistance of Solon High School Speech and Debate coach Jennifer Moore) competed, using Rotary’s “Four Way Test” to examine an ethical dilemma.  Speeches ranged from examining the Four-Way Test through its own lens (Zach Schwartz); the state of modern political discourse (Ashwin Rane), approaches to education (Liz Eder), and pride and entitlement (Kathy Zhang).  After difficult deliberations by judges Garry Cramer (General Manager, Signature of Solon), Phil Weiss (Assistant District Governor, Rotary District 6630), and Danielle Rose (Publisher, Solon Spotlight), Ashwin Rane was selected as the winner from among the excellent speeches.  Ashwin will represent the Rotary Club of Solon at the upcoming District Four-Way Test Speech Contest  in Aurora on March 31; all contestants were awarded cash prizes for their participation.
