The Political Science Department’s Model United Nations (MUN) program sent students to participate in the Harvard National Model United Nations (HNMUN) in Boston from February 14th – 18th. The HNMUN competition featured 2,700 student competitors from 280 institutions (including Columbia, Brown, Yale, and the United States Military Academy at West Point) and 67 different countries. Participating students were able to debate a host of pertinent global issues, ranging from the rights of linguistic minorities to global access to financial services.
The Texas State delegation consisted of Darian Bear, Connor Clegg, Brian Delgado, Sheldon Galipp, John Garcia, Julia Huerta, Kayli Lord, Brandon Milligan, Lucy Stanley, Jewel Tapp, Ashton Thomas, Claire Whisler, and Catherine Wicker. Our students represented the Oriental Republic of Uruguay. We can be proud of all the students that participated, as they represented Texas State in an exemplary manner. This prestigious competition was a challenging learning experience for the students, and we’re proud of the outstanding job that they did.
