Volunteer:<\/strong> Shannon Calt<\/p>\n

Occupation:\u00a0<\/strong>Attorney, Aldridge Pite LLC<\/p>\n

Experience:\u00a0<\/strong>Shannon has been an attorney since 2011, specializing in creditor rights – which includes civil litigation, bankruptcy, creditor\/debtor issues and more. He is admitted to practice in Oregon, Washington, Alaska, and Hawaii, which means he has taken – and passed! – all four bar exams.<\/p>\n

Shannon’s connection with Civics Learning Project began about 5 years ago.\u00a0 He leads courthouse tours regularly during the school year, giving students a look into the justice system from the perspective of a practicing attorney. He also volunteers every year as a Presiding Judge for the regional and state Oregon High School Mock Trial competitions.<\/em><\/p>\n

In his own words:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

My favorite thing about volunteering as a tour guide is inspiring interest in what the students are about to see.\u00a0 \u00a0 In my short presentation, I try to tell stories that personalize the justice system, and impart the seriousness of what they are witnessing. Everyone in court is a real person – they are friends, family, neighbors, co-workers, even fellow students. Anyone could end up in court, and hopefully they would all receive justice. During a Civics Learning Project Courthouse Experience tour, students are getting to see behind the curtain for a moment, and I hope my contribution makes the experience more meaningful.<\/p>\n

The best part of volunteering as a judge for Mock Trial is the difficulty of picking a winner among such well prepared students. Their performances are sometimes indistinguishable from, or even better than, actual lawyers. Having been a less-than-stellar high school student myself, I am frequently in awe at their effort and ability.\u00a0 I love it when a student has the perfect response to an interesting objection, and I can look them in the eye, nod, and rule for them while privately thinking \u201cwell done!\u201d\u00a0 There is an interesting saying that goes:\u00a0 \u201cGod created man and Sam Colt made them equal.\u201d\u00a0 Well, in today\u2019s world, I submit that Civics Learning Project Mock Trial teaches year after year that preparation and hard work can make any of us a giant.<\/p>\n
