How many speakers' positions? Are you recording the audience as well?

If the setup is fairly simple (i.e. one rostrum, no audience), I'd get
hold of a rifle mic and run it into a laptop.
If you can get at the mic stands, you might also like to add your own mics
to them. Radio mics make the installation much simpler.
If you hire the kit, costs can be kept to a minimum.
