Welcome to all our new 2011-2012 members! We're excited that you're joining the Model UN family at SHS. As stated in the first meeting, we do require new members to complete a background reading that introduces them to the history and funtions of the United Nations. Along with the reading are some important questions to answer thoroughly.
Since being an active member of Model UN requires research and preparation for conferences, your completion of this assignment is important in letting us know that you are willing to do what is required of all good MUNers.
Once you have completed and turned in the questions at the next meeting, you will be granted an account at this website and can proceed to sign up for conferences.
The assignment is due on September 20th!

Thank you!
Eboard, Ms. Gerber, and Ms. Goddard!

Delegate Research: http://shsmun.com/node/500
Stevenson Model United Nations began in the spring of 1996. This purpose of this co-curricular activity is to provide opportunities for students to take part in model United Nations’ conferences and thereby experience the process by which the actual UN works. This team is sponsored by Ms. Gerber and Ms. Goddard. It meets on Tuesdays from 3:45–5:00 in room 7044.
A love for international politics. Public speaking ability. Dedication to research. Conference eligibility is determined by attendance and contributions at weekly meetings.
Meetings are once a week in 7044, plus sizable research in the weeks preceding each conference.
Students wishing to join may come to one of the first three meetings of each semester. New members must complete a background assignment on the United Nations.
Involves researching current world affairs and representing various nations at Model United Nations Conferences. Students work individually and in teams to accurately represent their assigned countries in crisis situations and in-depth simulations of current and past UN topics.
