founded in late 2019, southern california moot court (scmc) is usc's first-ever undergraduate moot court team. a member of the american moot court association (amca), members travel across the country to compete against other undergraduate moot court programs in appellate advocacy simulations. in its inaugural year, scmc qualified for the national tournament and placed third in the nation — outplacing over 470 teams and nearly 1000 competitors. scmc prides itself in improving the oral and written advocacy abilities of its members — teaching them to think, reason, and argue like lawyers long before law school and legal practice.
