Purpose of Organization To provide former PLSC 260 students with opportunities to attend college-level Model UN conferences and to provide all students with the annual Winthrop Model UN conference. In a larger sense, to provide a forum in which the issues confronting the international community can be examined from multiple points of view.
Description of Organization For 29 years, the Winthrop University Model UN has opened up the world to thousands of students, and we invite many more to join and participate in this year's event. Our model UN was the First to combine participation of high school and college students in a forum where debate and discussion provide students the opportunity to experience international politics in action. The Model UN Club gives interested college students an opportunity to practice their skills and knowledge at a higher level by participating in regional and national level Model UN's.
