Akron Trial Team will be holding TRYOUTS on SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, STARTING AT 9:00 a.m. and continuing through the day.  It’s never been a better time for incoming competitors!  Please sign up for a 10 minute slot on the signup sheet located in the Legal Clinic.  All people trying out must give a short opening statement or a closing argument no longer than 5 minutes in length.  The case that you will be arguing is a civil case, and the packet is also located in the Legal Clinic.  You DO NOT WANT TO MISS this amazing opportunity to learn valuable skills, work with top trial attorneys, and advance your career.

If you have any questions or need help with your tryout material, feel free to contact Stephanie Hand-Cannane at sah83@zips.uakron.edu or Jonathan Sauline at jws50@zips.uakron.edu.

The 2012 Law Review Write-On Competition began this morning at 8 AM.  You can access the Write-On Competition by signing on to TWEN and registering for the Write-On Competition course.  After adding the course, read the instructions and the hypo posted on the left side of the TWEN course’s homepage.  You have until July 23 at 8 AM to submit your response by email to Ryan Doringo at RyanDoringo@yahoo.com or rad33@zips.uakron.edu.  Please remember that you will remain anonymous during the grading process, so put your student ID number and not your name on the header of the first page of your write-on submission.  I strongly suggest that you do not put off registering for the course or beginning the drafting process.

Good Luck!
