The Mock Trial Program at 杏吧原创
Mock trial is a program in which students participate in rehearsed trials to learn about the legal system competitively. Students can have different roles in the judicial system, such as judges, lawyers, witnesses, etc. 杏吧原创's Mock Trial student club is open to students, regardless of major, looking to improve their communication skills.
