Undergraduate / Affairs of UN member countries - Vanderbilt extracurricular essay! Model UN experiences [2]
I am happy with the essay but it think it is ok...not excited about it. thoughtsss?
Please briefly elaborate on one of your extracurricular activities or work experiences (Recommended length: 250 words)
Many of my decisions throughout high school have been based on a question I asked myself on my first day of freshman year, "How will I make my high school experience unique?" I kept this question in mind when I founded Model United Nations. Outside from the classroom, I am able to forge an environment where students from every grade and cultural background are afforded a platform to create a voice for themselves on issues concerning the affairs of UN member countries. For the past three years, I have led a dedicated and enthused group of individuals in their exploration of world issues. For hours into the evening, we present, share, and debate the same issues that UN delegates and world leaders confront on a daily basis. If you walked into any one of our meetings you would witness us fervently (and vocally) exchanging positions on the global financial crisis and expeditiously researching why the gross domestic product of the world's poorest countries is gradually decaying. This is how we have fun. With every brazen debate follows the unrivaled gratification when you win a mock debate with the position paper you and your teammate drudged over for the past month. I would have never imagined that our MUN team would be headed to state conferences. As president, I am indisputably honored that I am given the opportunity to sponsor the awareness of young adults on current events that we will all likely face once leaving high school.
