The Board of Advocates is the Law Center’s student honor organization dedicated to the promotion and development of oral and written persuasive advocacy skills. Rising third-year law students are selected to membership on the Board of Advocates based on a holistic application that looks at a student’s success in the Law Center’s many different internal and external advocacy competitions, teams, and other skills development opportunities. The Board of Advocates is the result of a merger of the former Moot Court and Trial Advocacy Boards.
The Class of 2025 set record levels of participation in Advocacy Programs competitions and events this year, and students submitted the highest number of applications for membership on the Board of Advocates we have ever received. As a result, selection to this year’s Board of Advocates was extremely competitive.
