Hi, I’m Prof. Mitch Pickerill and I’ll be teaching Political Science 419 – that’s
Mock Trial. The Mock Trial class is actually done in conjunction with the NIU Mock Trial
Program. What we do in the class is we take a case that’s issued every year by the American
Mock Trial Association and students learn how to play attorneys and be witnesses and
we actually conduct a trial. We also take part in competitions and go to tournaments
with and against other universities and colleges throughout the Midwest. We eventually compete
in a National competition. So, it’s a great class, it’s certainly a great class for
pre-law students. You can only take this class with my persmission, so please come and see
me in my office during office hours.
