Please congratulate the outstanding members of Buffalo State University's Intercollegiate Moot Court Team as they competed in the American Moot Court Association's Northeast Regional Championships on December 7–8 at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts.
Each of these students spent dozens of hours this semester preparing legal arguments concerning the limits of the Fifth Amendment privilege concerning self-incrimination and the extent of First Amendment speech protections. All excelled in their arguments against students from Yale, Chicago, Williams, and other private and public institutions. A special thanks goes to Mr. William Altreuter, co-coach, local attorney, and lecturer of public law, for his efforts preparing these students.
The following students have worked diligently since the beginning of the semester to represent Buffalo State:
- Eunice Alvarado-Resendiz
- Meghan Donacik
- Tina Eftekharinia
- Kayli Elliott
- Mira Grosser
- Thomas Hollander
- Jacob Molnar
- Madison Sierra
- Nicholas Smith
Please congratulate each of these students for their hard work and success!
