Model UN, Historians look at past toward future From the dark ages to outer space, the Model UN and Jr. Historians were groups that dealt with history in some way or another. Model UN learned more about the nations' problems, and histori- ans explored new and exciting places. Jr. Historians were a close group of students who all wanted to gain more knowledge of the history in Round Rock and in the state. Nine members traveled to Enchanted Rock in October. The rock was a volcano that the Indians use to worship. Model UN's main purpose was to par- ticipate in a mock assembly of the actual United Nations and to familarize the students with problems the UN was facing. The students were given the countries India and Somolia to represent in the March 1981 Mock Assembly. Each delegation representing these countries acquainted themselves with the economic, political and cultural aspect of their country. They must also gain a knowledge of the foreign policies of their country as well as other coun- tries. After the members researched their countries, they met in Houston with stu- dents so that their country and resolu- tion could be discussed and passed by the General Assembly. Both the Model UN and Jr. Historians were indeed a group of young students trying to make themselves aware of historical problems and the surroundings in the world.
