Note of experience from Kimber Rasmussen:
I attended Girls State at The University of South Dakota on June 3rd-8th. Over the week I learned many new things such as how the many different branches of government work and how to promote our mythical political parties. During the week I decided to take the bar exam. This opened me up to the judicial branch of the government. I was appointed by one of the girls from my county to be a Magistrate Judge. With this role I conducted a preliminary hearing for a mock case. Once we were done with preliminary hearings, they asked for volunteers to become a deputy state’s attorney. I said yes because I was genuinely interested in the different roles in the judicial branch and wanted to see it from a different perspective. I learned how to argue on behalf of the state, and we won our case! I highly recommend this experience to anyone who is eligible to go, and I thank the Kimball Post for giving me this opportunity.
