Congratulations to James Carroll (5th Year), Gavin Bowen-O’Connor, Frazer McGinn, Jamie Starr Bourke, Conor Casey (all TY), and Aran O’Flaherty (3rd Year), on their performance at SAIMUN (St. Andrew’s International MUN) last weekend, representing the USA. After three days of rigorous debate, the delegates were awarded with many “Distinguished delegate” awards, “Crisis committee” awards, and the top prize of “Outstanding Delegation”, awarded to the best delegation at the conference. We hope that this achievement will encourage others to take part in MUN in the future.
