Baldwin Wallace Mock Trial Team

Want to learn how to improve your ability to persuade people and think on your feet? While Mock Trial is great for students who are interested in law, it is also a great opportunity for any student to practice public speaking skills, as well as being able to think and argue off-the-cuff and under pressure. Students from all majors are welcomed and encouraged to participate. Mock trial is a great way to improve your critical reasoning and public speaking skills, skills that are invaluable for whatever career you choose. Students work with practicing trial attorney William Eadie to learn the Federal Rules of Evidence, Civil and Criminal Procedure, as well as persuasive argument, cross-examination skills, and trial strategy. Mr. Eadie received his law degree from Case Western Reserve School of Law, where he won the William E. Davis Mock Trial Prize, the Paul J. Hergenroeder Prize for Outstanding Trial Advocacy, and Best Advocate in the 2008 Case Crosstown Mock Trial Competition, and was president of the Case Mock Trial Team. There are a number of roles on the team, from litigator to witness to timekeeper, which allows you to balance your time and comfort-level constraints against our competition schedule. Drawing on elements of debate, theatre, improve, and persuasive reasoning, BWMT is an opportunity to discover and refine a set of skills that translate to any field.
