Sociology Trial

Today is the the day of the last activity for our sociology class, which is the court trial. Our class was divided into two groups with a different case for each because of its size. Our group was the prosecution for the euthanasia or mercy killing case. The way the entire trial was conducted was actually very interesting. We had to make up our own evidences and present the whole case as if it had really happened. The end result is that there was a lot of fun in making the whole event seem real and acting the part we were each supposed to be. Admittedly this was one of the most interesting parts of the sociology class, and we the the most fun with it. The actual trial lasted a ridiculously long time- the first case started around 4 pm, and the last case ended after midnight. It was a tiring but interesting experience, and we all had time to take group photos later.
