Description
Moot Court simulates appellate argument before the U.S. Supreme Court. Students argue constitutional and statutory questions that are stated in a hypothetical Supreme Court case formulated by the American Collegiate Moot Court Association (ACMA). Students will strengthen their oral, written, and critical thinking skills as well as develop their understanding of judicial process and substantive issues of the law. The course culminates with students participating in the ACMA’s Upper Midwest Regional Tournament with the possibility of earning a bid to the national tournament. There are no prerequisites. Instructor approval, however, is required.
