MUN UPDATES
Be sure to follow this page along with the GroupMe updates (our main method of communication) for important information. This page will mainly discuss what we do in meetings, and will not be as up to date as our GroupMe.
Today, we had our first discussion meeting of the year. Despite the fact that this was an optional meeting AND a Friday afternoon, more than 20 members came and participated in our insightful discussion on the death penalty. We were also able to expose the participants to a discussion structure similar to the Parliamentary Procedure used in Model UN conferences.
Edit: Interestingly, the United Nations' Human Rights Council recently voted on a resolution about the Death Penalty. Here is a link to the full resolution: http://ilga.org/downloads/HRC36_resolution_question_death_penalty.pdf

Once again, thanks to everyone who came to our meeting. We still had a crazy amount of students coming. Some of the key points we discussed were:
Today was our first meeting of the 2017-2018 school year. Thank you all for coming. It was amazing to see more than 80 of you in the LGI as Elizabeth and I gave our presentations. We hope all of you found our presentation and club interesting and that everyone that went will attend our future meetings. We are looking forward to have a successful year with all of you! If you have any questions, just contact us through Remind, e-mail, or even through this website's contact form (on the front page). Also, we will be having a makeup meeting tomorrow in Mr. Fahler's room for everyone who was not able to attend this one. It begins at 6:45 and is in portable 19. Below is the PowerPoint presentation we used in today's meeting and the one we will use tomorrow.
