Make OLT Award Winners All-Americans
Make OLT Award Winners All-Americans
Why this petition matters
This year, the class of 2020 lost many things - graduations, in-person classes, and the opportunity to complete at AMTA's Nationa Championship. Many of these students have dedicated countless hours of their undergraduate careers practicing with the hopes of earning an All-America only for the opportunity to be taken away.
The students who were awarded at the OLT competition demonstrated their mock trial skills at the highest level. The OLT field proved as competitive as the National Championship. These seniors deserve to be recognized for winning an award at a national tournament. The fact that even TBC champion Sonali Mehta has not been granted this deserved honor is beyond comprehension. Many more on this list have proven to be the very best on the mock circuit for years. We've watched them, learned from them, and rooted for them. Now, they need our help.
AMTA needs to continue the tradition of providing All-Americans to the top students in the country. This year, that list comprises of OLT award winners. This includes awarding All-Americans to the deserving students who advanced to the final round.
