After returning from last week’s 2013
International Intercollegiate Mediation
Tournament at Drake University Law
School in Des Moines, Iowa, there are no
more mountains to conquer for the 2013
Clayton State Mediation Team.
“There are no more tournaments this sea-
son. We have won the highest award,”
says Dr. Judith Stilz Ogden, associate pro-
fessor of law in the College of Business at
Clayton State.
Indeed, the Drake tournament concluded
a spectacular campaign for Clayton
State’s mediation team of Tamara Johnson
(Supply Chain Management major,
Atlanta), Bertha Amosu (Accounting
major, Peachtree City), Latangila Hodges-
Bellamy (Supply Chain Management
major, McDonough), Patrick Moore
(Legal Studies major, Stone Mountain),
Shannon Moultrie (Legal Studies major,
Fayetteville) and Matthew Blake (Legal
Studies major, Peachtree City). In an
international tournament with 42 teams
from 25 colleges and universities from
various countries, Clayton State won the
First Place Mediation Team Award, the
“highest award” referred to by Ogden.
In addition, the team also came in sixth
for the Advocate/Client Team Award, and
individually Moultrie and Amosu took
second
place
for
Individual
Advocate/Client. Also receiving individ-
ual awards were Hodges-Bellamy and
