Find us at the activities fair!
Information Sessions & Interest Meetings dates coming soon! Meanwhile, keep up with WMMT on our social media. We're on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook!
To tryout for the team, you must attend one of our information sessions where you can sign up for an audition time. If you are interested in auditioning but could not attend an interest meeting, or have not joined our mailing list, please contact our VP Outreach, Megha Vasudevan (mvasudevan@wm.edu).
SO HOW DO I JOIN THIS FUN AND COOL TEAM?
WAIT, THERE'S AN AUDITION?
4 Easy Steps:
1. Find us at the club fair. You can steal our candy, talk to us, and get your questions answered!
2. Attend an information session
3. Sign up to audition.
4. Audition!
Yes! But there's nothing to worry about. At WMMT, we believe that mock trial is first and foremost a public speaking activity. We do everything we can to ensure that anyone, regardless of experience, has a shot at our team.
Auditions come with two rounds, Round 1 and then invitation-only Round 2. For Round 1, you will deliver a 3 minute, performance of some sort such as a creative speech, a persuasive speech, a monologue, etc. Unoriginal performances are fine, but please let us know if that's the case! Then, you may be invited to attend our second round of auditions which will entail... wait for it... playing a game! That's right. As a team, we love playing public speaking games with each other, and we will invite potential members to come do so with us as Round 2 of our auditions. There is no preparation for Round 2, so bring yourself and get ready to have fun!
DO I NEED HIGH SCHOOL EXPERIENCE?
Not at all! College mock trial is pretty different from high school mock trial, so we aim to focus just on an auditionee's public speaking ability and less on prior experience. If you're wondering about the differences between college and high school mock trial, email Megha or message us on Instagram!
