University of Wisconsin Law School students placed with distinction in March 2008 at the two venues of the 15th Annual Willem C. Vis International Arbitration Moot Court Competitions.
Members of the Wisconsin team were divided into two teams to compete in Hong Kong and Vienna. The Hong Kong team won First Runner-up for Best Brief, and Team Vienna advanced to the final elimination rounds. More than 200 teams from 52 countries competed.
Team members were Lara Aziz, Sophy Chhun, Lucas Divine, Maya Ganguly, Kate Bruce, Sina Javaherian, David Moore, and Maha Kahn. Coaches were Leanne Holcomb, James Isaac, and Nicole Moody.
This is the third year that the UW Law School has entered teams at the Vis competitions.
The Wisconsin team’s coaches for 2008-09 will be Maya Ganguly, Lara Aziz, Sophy Chhun, and Lucas Divine. An informational session at the Law School is scheduled for Thursday, April 3, 2008, at 6 p.m. in Room 2211 to discuss try-outs for the coming year.
