How does the administration of the LAWASIA team differ, if at all, from the administration of the teams fielded by the Scott Moot Court Honors Program (the “Scott Teams”)?
A. The Scott Teams, e.g. the National Moot Court Team and the Jessup Moot Court Team, are selected through the Scott Moot Court Competition and the various teams are administered by the Scott Board. It is essentially a student-run organization, with faculty advisors and coaches. The LAWASIA team, like the Vis International Commercial Arbitration Moot are selected and directed by one or more members of the Law School faculty. They select the team and establish the “curriculum” for the program. They also determines whether the students who participate have done the necessary work to earn the 2 units of credit. Students who wish to participate in the LAWASIA Moot should consider it to be similar to a “skills course,” graded on a pass/no pass basis by the Coach/Faculty Advisor. It is not a student run organization.
