The Peter Burns Moot

The Peter Burns Moot is an annual competition based on a criminal fact pattern. The participants receive nearly private tutorials from members of the legal community - whether it would be highly respected lawyers or judges - that help them prepare for the final trial. Eight students participate and two get chosen to represent UBC nationally and possibly even internationally (I think).

Congrats go out to this years winners - Jovan and Grady and to Betsy - the back up, that will take one of their places if there is the need for it. But also congrats to everyone else who participated. The work put into it was phenomenal and the end result fantastic!

Halloween Party

After last year's Halloween fiasco, the Rugby team didn't want to take any risks. Instead they went with the "No Windows, No Plants, No Problems!" theme and got the party organized at Capri Hall. Took a bit of getting used to, but eventually the dance floor filled up. There was definitively no shortage of fantastic costumes - so enjoy the pics.
