THE COLUMBIA UNION College Mock Trial team was narrowly defeated by the University of Redlends on Sunday, February 5. The competition was held in Riverside, CA at the historic City Courthouse. CUC lost in the overall category by only four points, but two CUC students, Tyson Shaw and Andrew Ritland, were singled out as the best witnesses in the competition. This marks the second consecutive time that Shaw and Ritland have won the award for best witness.

The mock trial team members flew to California on Thursday, February 2 and spend most of Friday speaking with area high school students about the pre-law program at Columbia Union College. CUC has more declared pre-law students than any other Adventist college in North America. Over 50 people witnessed the competition on Sunday. If you were there -- or if our team visited your school -- send us a note and tell us your thoughts.

CUC has now competed in two mock trial competitions and has a record of one win and one loss. CUC beat the University of Dayton on January 29. Two more competitions are scheduled: one against the University of Central Florida, and one against the University of Maryland. Stay tuned for more information about those events.

Columbia Union College is the only Adventist college with a mock trial team. For more information, contact Dr. Roy Branson at rbranson@cuc.edu, or visit the mock trial section of our website.
