Maimonides Moot Court Competition (Formerly Moot Beit Din)
Teacher: Lowell Lustig
Embark on a rich and engaging learning journey with our local teacher, Lowell Lustig. Through this premiere program, students will grapple with contemporary ethics through a prism of Jewish legal tradition. Powered by the Hadar Institute and supported by Maimonides Fund, the Maimonides Moot Court Competition is an international competition for high school and college students, in which participants defend ethical arguments grounded in Jewish wisdom in response to a modern ethical issue. The 2023-24 theme is "Privacy in the Digital Age." The case explores how traditional Jewish legal approaches to privacy can be applied to modern day social media platforms, especially around questions of data privacy. This is a yearlong course that includes travel opportunity in the Spring to the competition.
