Nathan W. Nelson was invited to serve as a judge at Hamline University School of Law’s 30th Annual William E. McGee National Civil Rights Moot Court Competition. Critical to the success of the competition have been the attorneys, law professors and judges who have volunteered to grade briefs and/or hear and score the oral arguments of the competing teams. As a result of their involvement, over the years, thousands of young lawyers have been introduced to the experience of practice in this important area of law by being engaged in research, reflection, dialogue and advocacy concerning its issues.
