Tryouts

=Welcome to HC Model UN 2013-14=

Considering trying out for Model UN? Take a look at [|this video] for a quick look at what Model UN is all about.

Tryouts will take place September 25-27 in room 215. There will be two sessions each day: the morning session begins at 7:30 and ends by 7:55 and the afternoon session begins at 3:10 and ends by 3:35.

To try out for Model UN, you'll be debating this topic from Northwestern Model UN:. You'll also need to be ready to debate your peers (others trying out and current members of Model UN) in a discussion of the topic.

So here's what you do:

1. Sign up for a tryout date [|here]. Don't miss it.

2. Download and read the Background Guide. Research the position of France, Norway or Bulgaria to determine how it will react to this topic. Then write a [|white paper] that outlines your chosen country's position. Please make sure to use the guidelines for the white paper, not the black paper.

3. Be prepared to summarize your position paper and debate the topic with your peers (other students trying out and current Model UN delegates).

4. The list of delegates will be posted outside of room 215 by Monday September 30.
