Converse Wins Outstanding Delegation Award at International Model NATO
乔·邓恩
For the 18th consecutive year, Converse took the Outstanding Delegation Award at International Model NATO during the February 2023 conference in Washington, DC.
With an award in every one of the six committees, the Converse delegation, representing the United States, bested teams from such high-profile institutions as the University of Michigan, 佐治亚理工学院, 霍华德大学, Universite Libre de Bruxelles, Universite du Quebec a Montreal, Malmo University (Sweden) [one of the top ten rated universities in the world], Royal Military Academy of Canada, 空军学院, 弗吉尼亚理工大学, 还有很多其他的. Probably the most interesting was the M.A. program in international service at the Georgetown University School of Foreign 服务 (where the students were all masters level present or future foreign service officers).
The Converse second delegation, representing Luxembourg, comprised primarily of freshmen, won a Superior rating—the third rating below Outstanding and Distinguished, ranking them in the top third of the delegations.
Among many exceptional performances, junior Pashion Oswalt ’24 (尼斯贝特认为荣誉) won the single best delegate designation, 由她的同龄人投票选出, in the Nuclear Planning Group. Sophomore Gretchen Berry ’25 (尼斯贝特认为荣誉) and freshman Fetya Fichtinger ’26, besides taking the peer-voted Distinguished Award in the Political Committee, were designed by the faculty advisor for that committee for the leadership award for the most significant, sometimes lower-profile contributions to the work of the committee.
In my 36 years in 模型万博下载ios, I have witnessed many incredible chairs, but sophomore Jack Stokes’ ’24 leadership in the Military Committee, may be ranked at the top. His vote by the faculty as the best chair was virtually unanimous as he bested four other outstanding Converse chairs. Erin Kitchenka ’23 (尼斯贝特认为荣誉), the Converse co-head delegate, served as Secretary-General for the Model.
The Southeast Model Arab conference will be held at Converse University from March 17-19, 2023.
