Falknor

The Falknor Moot Court competition is kind of a cool way to get two non-graded credits. You're entitled to earn up to six of those credits while you're in law school. For Falknor, you sign up with a partner, you write a brief on an assigned topic (there are two questions, so you and your partner each address one), and then participate in oral arguments. You have to do at least two rounds.
For me, it was a good way to get experience doing oral arguments since my schedule precludes me from taking trial ad. Plus, having the two extra credits freed up some time later in my schedule. I signed up because I saw a couple of student-parents do it the year before. Email me (kremerl@) if you want to know more about it.
