With winter around the corner, senior Ashley Hare describes her exciting time at her first conference for Model UN this year. Model UN continues their new year as they had their first set of conferences this weekend Friday, Nov. 6 and Saturday, Nov. 7.

At these conferences, Model UN gets involved in a number of activities where they experience a number of new things.

“I was on the DNC and was given the task along with twenty other members to nominate the Democratic presidential candidate and to help them beat the Republican candidate the RNC nominated,” said Hare.

“This conference showed me how well my skills have improved over the last two years I have been in Model UN,” said Hare. “My diplomacy and speaking skills have improved so much and Model UN is the main reason for this great change I have felt as a student.”
