2024 EKU Colonel Classic Mock Trial Invitational - Judges Needed Jan. 20-21

On Saturday, January 20, and Sunday, January 21, 2024, Eastern Kentucky University will host its annual EKU Colonel Classic Mock Trial Tournament. This invitational tournament will feature a strong field with teams from top programs across the country.

As in the past, we rely upon the support of judges, attorneys, law students, and former college mock-trial competitors to serve as volunteer judges, providing the students with essential feedback on their performances. Members of the Kentucky state bar may be eligible for up to two hours of public-speaking CLE credit for participating.

The schedule of rounds is as follows:

Saturday, January 20
Round 1: Judges arrive at 8:30 a.m., trial from 9:15 a.m.-12:15 p.m.
