Mock trial is a competition where students simulate an actual trial. Students play the roles of attorneys and witnesses and prepare opening and closing statements and direct and cross-examination. The competition allows our students to improve their critical thinking, public speaking, acting, and teamwork skills. CSUN’s mock trial team competes in the national competition hosted by the American Mock Trial Association. We have been hard at work since July, preparing for the competition which will take place in February 2025.
We are asking for your help in raising money to pay for the costs of the competition, including travel, food, and hotel expenses (last year we competed in Tempe, Arizona) as well as copying and materials costs.
Any donations would be greatly appreciated and with your help we hope to shine at the competition!
