Moot Court Team headed to the Western Regional Moot Court Tournament!
Pre Law Resource Center coordinator Blake Wilson (Criminal Justice) is coaching the first-ever Stan State Moot Court Tournament team in preparation for its upcoming competition at the Western Regional Moot Court Competition, to be held at Fresno State on November 1 and 2, 2019 from 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. The students, known as 'attorney-contestants,' are enrolled in Coach Wilson's CJ 3125 Moot Court class, launched this semester as the foundation for competition in both the Regional Moot Court Tournament as well as the intramural tournament taking place at the end of the semester. Let's cheer on our Semantic Warriors as they perfect their oral argument skills and learn what it's like to argue a case (and maybe win it) before the United States Supreme Court! Please contact Prof Wilson for more information.
Stay tuned for dates and times for upcoming visits from admissions directors at Golden Gate, Hastings, and Berkeley law schools!
