Thimuners Head to The Hague
By Hanna El Amrawi
As the year goes on, the 12th graders look forward to graduating and entering a new phase in life. The 8th graders might start to feel anxious as they enter High school. But what about the 11th graders? Do they have anything to look forward to? Of course, they do. Most of the juniors at Schutz get to travel to the Hague and take part in a very prestigious conference. Hoda Eldib(Ambassador of Tajikistan), Dikran Alexanian, Hana Afifi, Soha Afifi, Ahmed Ayroud, and Moustafa El Naggar represented Tajikistan at the 2010 The Hague International Model United Nations conference. The THIMUN conference is one of the biggest MUN conferences in the world, holding around 3000 delegates. For the past years at Schutz, it has always been the History teacher who accompanies the MUNers but, this year’s juniors were accompanied by Massimo Latereza, the Dean of Students.
Each student was placed in a different committee where they negotiated and debated on various issues from the country they represents, point of view. By meeting and interacting with new people, the delegates were able to experience what actual MUN members go through. Hoda Eldib, our ambassador, felt that this experience was very memorable to her as she was able to meet people from all over the world.
As you can tell, this MUN conference is definitely an event that you would look forward to.
