Write-on Competition

The write-on competition is usually held in late June over a ten-day period. The competition consists of a written response to an open-universe prompt based on a current legal issue. Students will be provided with a prompt and will conduct independent legal research to address the issue provided. Submissions will be evaluated based on the form and content of the student's legal arguments, the student's ability to locate relevant sources, and the accuracy of the student's bluebook citations.
