Model UN Students Embark on First Event

Six Tandem Upper Schoolers head to Richmond this afternoon to participate in the first Model United Nations event of the academic year. This first simulation takes place at Maggie L. Walker Governor's School and Tandem's delegates include: Emma P, Mary R, Bailey W, Larissa F, Emi M, and Mekhi H. For this round, Tandem students have been placed on the following committees and have been working hard to come up with the information they will need:

• Disarmament & International Security (Japan)
• United Nations Environmental Programme (Italy)
• US Fashion Industry Commission (Richard Saghian)
• Haitian Revolution (Henri Cristophe)
• The Roaring 20s (Al Capone)

Tandem teacher Alex Siragy will be accompanying the students - we wish them good luck in Richmond.
