</o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century",serif">Greetings & Happy Holidays! I write out of some concern about the low number of students enrolled in Trial Advocacy. There are far fewer than I would expect for a required course – particularly
for those who have just completed Evidence. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century",serif">I cannot emphasize enough the importance of taking Trial Advocacy immediately after Evidence while that subject is fresh. And waiting to take the course also raises the difficulty of limited enrollment
opportunities in the 3L year. I am going to begin cancelling Trial Advocacy sections due to low enrollment but want to first encourage you to add the course this week.
