National History Day in Colorado (NHDC) is seeking alumni volunteers to serve as judges for the NHDC State Contest on Saturday, April 25, held at the CU Denver Auraria Campus. Judges work in small teams to review student research projects, interview middle and high school students, and provide constructive written feedback using a clear rubric.
