Politics, Foreign Policy and Crisis Committees: Students Participate in Stanford Model U.N.
The 7th year of the Model United Nations (MUN) club at Mount Madonna School (MMS) got underway recently with a conference at Stanford University. Seven MMS high school students participated: Alyssa Feskanin, Lena Wiley, Lexi Julien, Renata Massion and Zoe Kelly, 12th; Isabella Bettencourt, 10th; and Indigo Kelly, 9th, along with honorary member Lekha Duvvoori.
‘The best part about Model U.N. is the variety of committees and situations that the students are put in each year at the conferences,’ observed parent Kaye Feskanin, who has attended the conferences with MMS students for five years. ‘Some years, students are participants in a crisis committee and are transported back in time to the French Revolution or a civil war and expected to take on the role of that person. They research the time period and then react in character throughout the weekend.’
