OTHER ORGANIZATIONS:

Moot Court
Moot Court programs are an important part of legal training at Northwestern Law. They prepare students for and allow them to participate in appellate arguments. Working under faculty supervision, students prepare briefs and present oral arguments in competition with schools across the nation and around the world.

Legal Journals
Second- and third-year law students produce several scholarly journals under faculty supervision. Journal members are selected by third-year board members on the basis of grade point average and performance in a writing competition at the end of the candidate's first year or on the basis of performance as a write-on candidate in the fall semester of their second year.
