Model UN explores world problems The Model UN was held on the weekend of Feb. 9 and 10. The two day session was a new approach that was tried this year. Out-of-town delegates were housed by par- ticipating students from North. The prelim- inary caucuses and a social event were held at East on Friday evening with Saturday devoted to the General Assembly which was held in the cafeteria at North High School. The resolutions covered a broad spectrum of affairs, ranging from a task force for natural disasters to women’s rights. East delegates arrived well prepared and performed well. The Model UN was termed a huge success and was enjoyed by all. Right: Grecian delegates Leigh Fluckey, Cindy Neidhart, and Julie Fischer ponder the action of another delegation. Below: Sophomores Mike McCleary and Barry Lambom attempt to get the floor and make Pan- ama’s views known.
