The National Model U.N. began 49 years ago at Harvard University as a model of the League of Nations. Since then the conference has remained dedicated to its original purpose of educating college students about international affairs. At the conference delegates take on the roles of professional diplomats. Delegates become par ticipants at an international conference. They work with other delegates trying to achieve their own national objectives while fostering the necessary consensus for the desired international action. Intra-delegate relationships reflect the political realities in the world. The delegation from Capitol will be representing the Republic of Niger. Niger, a landlocked nation, is the largest state in West Africa and one of the most sparsely populated states on the African continent. The structure of the NMUN is modeled after the U.N. system with meetings of the General Assembly, Plenary Conferences and Special General Assembly Sessions, Economic and Social Council and Security Council. There will be General Assembly meetings along with three committee sessions. The committee sessions are: Political Committee, Social, Humanitarian and Cultural Committee and Legal Committee. In addition, there are conferences on Multinational Corporations, World Disarmament and a Special Session of the General Assembly on Raw Materials.
