A pair of University of 蝌蚪窝视频 School of Law students recently won a moot court competition that featured students from 22 law schools from across the United States. 

Kelsey Dulz and Madeline Withers won the fifth annual national moot court competition focusing on issues of gender, sexuality and law, hosted by Michigan State University College of Law March 21-22. 

The team of Dulz and Withers, both second-year students at 蝌蚪窝视频 Law, bested 31 other teams in the competition. Dulz earned the competition’s best oral advocate award. 

The final round featured a hypothetical First Amendment case with two issues before the U.S. Supreme Court, focusing on whether a school district violated a high school student’s free speech rights when it suspended him for wearing a shirt with a message that offended other students. 

蝌蚪窝视频 Law was also represented by 2L students Angelina Asmaro and Luca Quenneville in the competition, held virtually. Associate Professor Julia Belian coached both UDM teams.
