Leadership
Leadership allows someone the unique ability to affect positive change by giving them the chance to stand up for the voices of their organization or community. As a leader for UTMT, I have developed key skills that I will use for the rest of my life, such as confidence, assertiveness, and public speaking. |

InVOLvement
When I first came to college, I struggled to find my place, and a real community. Joining UTMT was one of the best decisions I have ever made, because it helped me get involved and make real friends. Mock Trial has been such a rewarding and fun experience for me to be involved in, and it's great to find a smaller community within a large university. |
