Laskin Moot Coaching, our Essay Contest and More!

  • February 11, 2022

Call for Volunteers!

The Section will once again partner with the Laskin Moot Competition (February 24-26, 2022), with Section members from local CBA branches offering to judge practice rounds for law students across the country in preparation for the competition.

If you are interested in coaching a team, please contact the Section’s Communications Officer Sara Hanson, and indicate whether you have a preference for working with a team from a specific university, or whether you are willing to work with students from any university. All coaching sessions will take place virtually.
