High schoolers come to College for Model UN
As evidenced by the throngs of well-dressed highschoolers meandering across the Green, Dartmouth Model United Nations hosted its seventh annual conference this weekend, drawing 500 students from 33 high schools across the country for the largest conference in DartMUN's history. DartMUN, which originated as a conference of 140 delegates in April 2006 and has since grown to include almost 400 participants, aims to provide high school students with an opportunity to discuss international issues, meet other students with similar interests and learn public speaking and diplomatic skills. Delegates arrived for the three-day conference on Friday afternoon for the opening ceremonies and their first committee sessions.
