Model UN Conference: Seattle

If you are interested in going as part of a team or individually, let me know; the department will help defray registration costs for majors or minors--

Dear Professor,

My name is Sameer Kanal, and I am serving as the Secretary-General of Northwest Model United Nations 2008. In looking through schools in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States and the western portion of Canada, we at Northwest Model United Nations have identified a great deal of schools to invite to join us at this year's conference. We hope you will consider our invitation.

Northwest Model United Nations (NWMUN) is an academic conference teaching about and simulating the United Nations. We simulate five different organs of the United Nations and bring together hundreds of students to learn by action in the process. Additionally, we have speakers who address specific issues of the day to students. Our keynote speaker this year is US Ambassador Carey Cavanagh, who established the United States' embassy in Georgia and will be speaking about protracted conflicts in that region.

Our conference will be held November 7-9, 2008 in Seattle, Washington. No prior experience in Model United Nations is necessary, and it is an affordable opportunity to gain such experience in both Model United Nations and working with international issues generally. If you are interested in attending, or would like more information, please feel free to contact me directly. You can also view our website for more information at http://www.nwmun.org. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to your response.
