MSUMUN XXI Website Letter
From the Desk of the Secretary-General
Esteemed Delegates, Advisors, and Friends,
It is my honor and pleasure to officially announce the twenty-first session of Michigan State University Model United Nations (MSUMUN) as well as the eleventh session of Red Cedar Model United Nations (RCMUN).
In the past eighteen months, delegates, staffers, parents, and advisors have adapted to countless changes, but they have never wavered in their commitment to Model United Nations. Between cancelling the conference in 2020 and joining us in pioneering our online format in 2021, we could not be happier to invite all of you back home to the Kellogg Center for MSUMUN XXI! That said, we understand that COVID-19 is constantly changing, and we are also excited to announce that we have several online committee options available for those that are uncomfortable with an in-person conference or those who cannot travel to East Lansing in March.
This past year, MSUMUN XX’21 and RCMUN X presented a variety of innovative and educational committees. In our General Assemblies, Delegates worked collaboratively to resolve challenging issues, such as settling territorial disputes, nuclear policy, and tackling the rise of drone use in international warfare. In our Specialized Committees, Delegates immersed themselves into ideas such as the rights of Bolivian farmers, the reunification of Germany, a future climate crisis, the formation of Yellowstone, and the fight for independence in Ghana.. In our Crisis Committees, Delegates dealt with a Social Security crisis, immersed themselves in the world of Pokemon, fought for the Alamo, went back in time to the Inca Empire, did business in the Korean market, and tackled a challenging Joint Crisis Committee . With the support of over 100 MSU volunteer staff members, we hosted hundreds of students at the middle and high school level over several online platforms.
At this time, I am excited to announce that MSUMUN XXI will be held March 18-20, 2022 at the Kellogg Hotel and Conference Center on Michigan State’s campus. With this being our first conference in-person since 2019, the members of MSUMUN and I look forward to showing delegates the best of what MSUMUN and Michigan State University has to offer. At MSUMUN, we strive to provide the dynamic and educationally enriching experience that MSUMUN has offered previously. For questions regarding the conference as a whole, and your school’s potential participation, please contact Undersecretary-General of External Affairs, Justin Fernando at externalaffairs@msumun.org.
I am looking forward to the ninth session of our middle school conference, RCMUN XI, which will be held February 19th. RCMUN has always fostered incredibly positive experiences for all of its Delegates, Advisors, and Staff, and I am greatly pleased to see it enter its eleventh session. Our exceptional Secretary-General of RCMUN, Emily Douponce, is enthusiastic to see RCMUN grow and expand as a conference. I have the utmost confidence in her vision and leadership. If for any reason you may need to contact her, Emily can be reached at rcmun@msumun.org.
As we continue to prepare for MSUMUN XXI and RCMUN XI, we plan on continuing to work with our schools, Advisors, and Delegates outside of the conference through our Outreach Program. In past years, MSUMUN and RCMUN staff members traveled to school in order to help students engage in research, public speaking, writing, and debate skills. I expect our Outreach Program to continue to strengthen the relationships MSUMUN and RCMUN have worked hard to develop with schools, while providing valuable educational opportunities to our students. If you are interested in our Community Outreach Program, please do not hesitate to contact our Undersecretary-General of Operations, Harnoor Kaur, at operations@msumun.org.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns relating to either of our conferences, feel free to contact me personally at secgen@msumun.org. I, along with our fantastic Staff and Secretariat, look forward to working with you this year. As the Secretary-General, I am honored to be a part of this organization, and I hope to see you all at MSUMUN and RCMUN!
Sincerely,
Emily Hanson
