HSMUN this Saturday, March 2
Resolutions due tonight at 12:00.
 `
Session B will also be held in Winifred Moore Auditorium, accessible through Webster University's Main Hall.
The final High School Model UN session of this school year is this Sat., March 2, 9:00 am until noon. It will be in the Winifred Moore Auditorium on Webster University's campus inside the Main Hall at 470 East Lockwood, 63119. Parking is plentiful across the street, along Lockwood, and behind the building off Plymouth Blvd (MAP).
Some important reminders and points to know:
- Since this is a larger venue, there is plenty of room for all students interested.
- Students should represent the same countries they had in the fall or another country your school drafted in the fall.
- New students are welcome. If your school did not draft countries in the fall, click here to choose a country that has no school name(s) next to it, preferably before you sign up.
- There will most likely be some duplicate country delegations. We will have separate voting placards for duplicates.
- If you submitted a resolution in the fall that was not discussed, it will have priority on the list. However, please review it/revise it and resubmit it to Stephanie (gavinstephanie89@gmail.com) by midnight tonight, Tuesday, February 27 so we have plenty of time to create the Master copy and send it to FedEx for printing.
- New resolutions are also welcomed and encouraged.
- Resolutions will be posted on our website as they are added to the Master Copy. CLICK HERE to see them once they are submitted.

Interested in talking about Heather McGhee's book with other students?
The main theme of the book, racism in America in the past and present, will provide plenty of discussion points, even if you don't have time to read the whole book! But before we schedule our book talk, we'd like to gather times and days that are most convenient for the most people. Please CLICK HERE to tell us what works best for you. The link WILL work this week! We will post the decided date and time in next week's newsletter.
We still have several free copies of the book. Let Civitas know if you would like one.
