It might be cold outside, but things got heated when CLS Vice President Alex Kay and President Tiffany Storm presented opposing arguments during a mock hearing this afternoon! Livingston County Prosecutor William Valliencourt acted as the Judge for the hearing, which was part of UDM’s Criminal Sentencing Course. A huge thank you to Mr. Valliencourt for joining us today. ⚖️

We have the best supporters! Huge thank you to my undergrad CJ professor, Dr. Heraux, for sending his old cell phone for the Women’s Law Caucus cell phone drive. The phone will be refurbished and used to support programs working to end domestic violence.

You just can’t say no to a pizza buffet. Especially when it benefits Focus:HOPE.
