Moot Court

Description: During the fall semester students research a specific area of Native American law in a problem-solving manner. Students work as a team to prepare a brief. Oral advocacy practice rounds are held. Students are chosen to represent the school in the national contest held early spring semester.

The American Bar Association accreditation standards require students to regularly attend the courses in which they are registered. Lewis & Clark expects students to attend classes regularly and to prepare for classes conscientiously. Specific attendance requirements may vary from course to course. Any attendance guidelines for a given class must be provided to students in a syllabus or other written document at the start of the semester. Sanctions (e.g., required withdrawal from the course, grade adjustment, and/or a failing grade) will be imposed for poor attendance.
