The Moot Court Honor Society at the Â鶹ÊÓƵ Washington College of Law sponsors a wide-range of activities designed to provide students with opportunities to practice their oral advocacy and brief writing skills. The Society competes at approximately fifteen competitions nationally and internationally. Our teams consistently win brief and oralist awards, as well as regional and national championships.
Each year the Moot Court Honor Society administers intra-school moot court competitions, held at WCL for WCL students only, and trains WCL students to compete in national appellate advocacy tournaments that other law schools administer. The Moot Court Honor Society also hosts theÌýBurton D. Wechsler First Amendment Moot Court Tournament, which attracts law students from over 25 law schools across the nation.
