What Forensics Has Meant to Me: Niharika Sachdeva

Without mock trial, I would not be where I am in my career. Mock trial taught me how to be a strong oral advocate, critical thinker, and leader. It also gave me a life long meaningful network of brilliant individuals.

What Forensics Has Meant to Me: Drew Betts

To Whom It May Concern:

I competed with the program from 2012-2017 and acted as the Assistant Director of Forensic from 2017-2020. The Forensics Department fully funded my tuition fees for my legal degree and paid me an additional stipend. Half of my speed dial list is made up of friends I’ve made through the mock trial program. I am the lawyer I am because of my competitive experience. Young adults deserve the same opportunities. I am willing to speak about my experiences at length. Please do not hesitate to contact me directly.
