Prelaw Student Organizations
Biddle Law Society
- The Biddle Law Society is Drexel’s official prelaw student organization. Membership is open to all members of the Drexel community (undergraduate and graduate students, alumni, faculty, and staff) who are interested in the legal profession or legal careers. Activities include presentations by practicing attorneys, “meet and greets” with law professors and law students, panel discussions, information about law school admission and LSAT preparation. For more information about the Biddle Law Society email bls@drexel.edu
Drexel University Mock Trial
- Open to students from all majors, Drexel’s mock trial team competes throughout the region against teams from other colleges and universities. Students learn courtroom procedure and decorum, trial strategy, the Rules of Evidence, while honing their teamwork and public speaking skills. In 2010-2011, Drexel’s team is competing in tournaments at Penn State, Penn, UMass-Amherst, Ohio Northern and Cornell. The team is also hosting the Philadelphia Regional Tournament, one of several qualifying events for the American Mock Trial Association’s (AMTA) National Championship Tournament. In addition to competing in tournaments, the mock trial team organizes a tournament for area high school students and hosts a team retreat in rural Pennsylvania.
