Founded to familiarize students with the inner workings of the United Nations,
this organization strives to increase students' awareness in and concern
for world events. Each year, McKendree College, in Lebanon, IL, hosts
both a Fall and a Spring session for area schools involved with the program.
Students from these schools participate as delegates to the U.N. from
their respective countries. Emphasis is placed on appropriate role
playing of various delegate positions and following diplomatic/parliamentary
procedures. Students are responsible for presenting prepared research
on international events, especially as they would pertain to their delegation.
Any Althoff student with an interest in world affairs, debate, or
speech is encouraged to join.
Meetings will be held before and after school, (most likely every other week), dependent on each delegate's time constraints, in preparation for each of the sessions.
Fees will be $20.00 per delegate, per session. We hope to purchase Model UN T-Shirts this year and with bus costs and fees, as well as the T-shirts, the total cost for the year should be around $50.00. We will plan one fund raising activity, to help offset these costs.
