Looking for More Additions to the Student Blog!

 
We love sharing ideas from our high school and middle school participants on our Student Blog. It's a special corner of our website dedicated to film reviews, opinion pieces, coverage of guest speakers, poems, and anything else a student wishes to write about. Pieces can be short or long and on all sorts of topics. If you have something you want to share (even a few words about your experience at a Model UN session!) email Stephanie Gavin at gavinstephanie89@gmail.com. And don't forget to check out the student blog by clicking here!
