OHIO MODEL UN
Mike Markulis & Larry Picicco, Advisors
The purpose of Ohio Model U.N. is to broaden students’ experiences through exposure to other cultures and worldwide issues. By attending Model United Nations’ conferences, students gain a new appreciation for International cooperation and peace. In addition to attending OMUN conferences, members sponsor fundraisers, such as Battle of the Bands, to defray the cost of conference registration fees.
