HOME OF CHAMPIONS
MORICI ADVOC AC Y COR RIDOR
No fewer than four first-place trophies from the National Trial Competition appear among the precious metal housed in the trophy cases lining the Morici Advocacy Corridor. Funded with a lead gift from James J. Morici Jr. ’79, the corridor attests to Chicago-Kent’s powerhouse record in national and international trial and appellate advocacy competition, a legacy dating to Chicago-Kent’s first national title in 1988.
Keya Rajput Milla ’07 Legal Counsel, AbbVie Keya Rajput and Joshua Jones ’08 won the 2007 National Trial Competition, with Keya bringing home the tournament’s Best Oral Advocate Award.
Morici Advocacy Corridor
My 5-year-old daughter’s reaction to the corridor captures my sentiments perfectly: “Fabulous.” Through the dedication of Judge Erickson and so many other coaches and believers in the program, the trial ad team has grown to receive much deserved national recognition. The merits of the program, the accolades it has received over the years, and the recognition it has brought to Chicago-Kent no doubt justify the corridor and its showcasing of the team’s talents and trophies.
