That students are making judicial determinations here is just scary stuff. I know you are qualified to serve on a jury in a real court, but the same rules of evidence keeping certain facts from the jury to render their decision more fair do not apply in these circumstances.
The jury system as it stands has developed over hundreds of years. We cannot expect to just port something over which sorta kinda looks like that and expect it to work just fine.
Again, this isn't a personal attack on you at all.
--and that said, most trial lawyers avoid jury terms in June like the plague because they don't want a bunch of college kids who got deferred jury service to fill up their jury pool..fwiw
