Dear MMUN Faculty Advisors and Delegates,

Thank you for your commitment to and attendance at MMUN 59. We, as staff, appreciate all of the hard work you have put into preparing for the conference. The conference would truly not be as productive as it was this year without your dedication to careful preparation.

I started my MMUN journey in 2013, and I have greatly appreciated the

experiences MMUN has given me, as a delegate, a staff member, and as a member of steering. I look forward to providing you with a fun worthwhile experience you will remember.

I look forward to serving as Secretary-General over the next year and can’t

wait to see you next year. Caitlin Hopper Secretary-General MMUN 60
