WHAT IS mODEL U.N. ?
Model United Nations, also known as Model UN or MUN, is an extra-curricular activity in which students typically role play delegates to the United Nations and simulate UN committees. This activity takes place at MUN conferences, which is usually organized by a high school or college MUN club.
Leonard Morse and Jacob Williams run the club at Dexter High School. There are two summits during the school year which is held at Southeast Missouri State University where we compete with other schools for awards such as Best Delegate.
