Kenwood’s Model UN students had the opportunity to engage in their own political debates and experience the challenges of maintaining positive relations with other countries this past weekend, February 28-March 1 in the annual Model United Nations Conference at Towson University.
During the Model UN students play the role of a country and solve real-world problems. Students get to interact with professors and college students who are in international relations. It provides a view of what the real world looks like outside of high school.
Mr. Nash has been Kenwood’s Model UN advisor now for several years and looks forward to the event every year. “This year’s 2025 TU-BCPS Model UN Conference was a quite a year to tackle the problem of forced migration and refugees. It’s standard practice to not assign a US delegation at this event, but with recent changes, it gave it felt a bit more real,” shares Mr. Nash.
Austria was represented by delegates Breana Ruth and Tori Sturgis. They experienced setbacks in committee but brought pointed comments and thinly veiled shade to the debate with vigorous use of the red card.
