ADR Competition Honor Society

Catalog description

The ADR Competition Honor Society is a student run organization that is led primarily by ADR Board Members, a select group of 3L students who excelled in the prior year's Honor Society. The Honor Society selects approximately sixteen to twenty 2L students each year to join the eight 3L Board Members. Together, these students participate in a Moot Camp before school starts in August and a year-long competition practicum. Selected members of the Honor Society represent the school in local, regional, national, and international negotiation, client counseling, mediation, and arbitration competitions sponsored by the ABA, other law schools, and international entities, including the International Chamber of Commerce Mediation Competition in Paris. Team members receive one academic credit for Moot Camp and one clinical credit for their participation on the Honor Society. The Board Members receive two clinical credits for running and coaching the Honor Society. Coaching is supplemented by faculty members who assist in preparing individual teams for certain competitions.
