Introducing our Undersecretary-General of Community Engagement, Samuel Longmire!
Year: Junior
Major: Human Biology Major, Cognitive Science Minor
What’s your favorite thing about this club?
S: I love everything about this club from the exhausted silence driving back from a four-day conference with someone's niche music tastes blasting through the speakers to the 9 minute moderated caucus, 45 second speaking time to discuss why the Security Council should prevent a hostile takeover of Equatorial New Guinea. However, my favorite thing about this club is how close we all become. There are few things that bring people closer than working together during a chaotic situation, and in Model UN we often have to work together to find peaceful solutions to problems facing the chaotic world we live in.
What are you excited about this year?
S: I'm excited about a lot of things happening this year, but I'm particularly looking forward to Merced MUN, the conference our club will be hosting on campus in the spring. We're inviting members from other universities across California and beyond to work together while representing different viewpoints in complex situations ranging from the 30-Years War to Skyrim to Hamilton's Cabinet. It's going to be MUNderful!

Introducing our Under-Secretary General of Fundraising and External Affairs, Diana Lua!
Major: Political Science, Sociology minor
Year: Sophomore
Why did you join Bobcat Model United Nations?
D: I joined BobcatMUN because I wanted to be up to date on international-affairs, as a political science major, and wanted to strengthen my speech and debate skills. I was always shy when it came to public speaking, and wanted to practice and work on it more. Through this club, I was able to find a comfortable environment to start and learn more through welcoming members.
What do you want to tell potential members who want to join but are hesitant?
D: I was actually hesitant to join myself! I worried that I did not know much about politics to partake in debate and wasn’t sure if much help would be there, but learned otherwise. I would say, that it’s completely fine to be nervous, the club has much to offer when it comes to helping new members. It may seem rough at first, but gets really fun one you debate with our members.
