Roseville High School’s two-year-old Model UN program will travel to the Davis Model United Nations conference on May 20 and 21. The club went to one conference at UC Davis and one at UC Berkeley last year. The MUN students mock the processes of  historical committees and figures, and RHS’ club received their committee assignments on March 31.

Freshman Durrah Ridhuan, who attended the Model UN workshop at Berkeley last term, is studying and organizing her position papers for the DMUNC.

“To prepare we have to practice what types of things we would say and speak, we also have to make creative position papers,” Ridhuan said. “I’m excited but I’m really nervous because the Model UN at Davis is really big compared to the one at Berkeley.”

The fourteen club members are Jack Rosetti, Rachel Barber, Marc Chappelle, Anuya Kamath, Durrah Ridhuan, Wafeeq Ridhuan, Jake Lukasko, Abigail Roberts, Kamri Hunt, Savanah Roe, Hope Preston-Medina, Sino Oulad Daoud, Mehak Chahal, and Alex Suba.
