Virtual Moot Court Judges Needed</
If you’ve wanted to judge the annual Sherman Minton Moot Court Competition but found it difficult to come to Bloomington to do so, this year could provide you with the perfect solution. Because of the pandemic, the entire competition this year is taking place virtually, so you will have many opportunities to judge via Zoom from the comfort of your home or office. Rounds begin on September 30 and end the first week in November. To sign up, visit https://calendly.com/sherman-minton.
