Congratulations to Scott Van Nice, Benjamin Lewis, Marisa Palmieri (on brief), and Lawrence Rosenthal (coach) for winning the 2008 Wagner Labor & Employment Moot Court Competition at New York Law School.  Scott Van Nice received the best oral advocate award for the final round.  I do not yet know which teams won best briefs.  Congratulations to the Michigan State team for a fantastic final round.
