UTNIF-IE Summer Camps: National Awards by UTNIF Alumni

The accomplishments of these alumni of the UTNIF are very much their own, and are the result of an intense commitment to forensic education that sometimes starts the year with a summer institute, but in the end is a collaboration between the student, exceptional coaches, supportive schools, and the input of one or even several summer institutes. We are immensely proud of our alumni and their commitment to excellence! Here are some of their known national accomplishments.
