Welcome Back USD Law School Students
We hope everyone had a great summer! The USD VICAM team is holding tryouts for the upcoming school year. The USD Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot (VICAM) team was created to participate in the Willem C. Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot Competition (the VIS Moot) in Vienna and Hong Kong. This is a great opportunity to learn more about ADR, international commercial law and business transactions. Also, Vis Moot has also become one of the most important networking opportunities within the international commercial arbitration community. Each year, arbitrators and commercial sales law experts descend on the event from all over the world, serving as adjudicators or coming just to view the competition.
As a moot court team, VICAM requires prospective members to submit an application and tryout in front of a panel of judges including members of the current VICAM Board and USD Professors. To apply you can pick up an application at our informational lunch – Thursday, August 30th, noon – in room WH 3C or download it below.
Students who wish to tryout can drop off their application, resume and a check for twenty (20) dollars made out to USD VICAM in the Writs, Friday, August 31, noon to 1 pm, to receive a copy of the tryout problem and instructions. Tryouts will be held on Weds September 5th and Thurs September 6th.
Remember ALL STUDENTS are welcome to tryout - INCLUDING 1Ls.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn more about international commercial arbitration and represent USD in Vienna or Hong Kong.
