1961 MID-ATLANTIC
MODEL
GENERAL
ASSEMBLY
It is our contention that those students
having an active interest in the United
Nations represent the vital core of leaders
in American youth, and it is they who will be
directing the international affairs of the
United States in the not-so-distant future.
Therefore, it can be nothing short of urgent
necessity that these young people be given
early opportunity to develop the interna-
tional perspective and intimate familiarity
with the machinery of the United Nations
so essential to the discharge of this heavy
responsibility.
We consider that the Mid-Atlantic Model
General Assembly offers just such an oppor-
tunity in its program of student participa-
tion in United Nations functions, and the
benefits arising therefrom. Students who
participate in the committee meetings and
plenary sessions ofthe Model General As-
sembly gain an istense appreciation of dif-
fering national interests, and the difficulties
arising from attempts to resolve issues
raised by these interests in the United
Nations. Of equal importance are those
benefits which might best be described as
intangibles — the experiences gained in
the lively exchange of ideas and interests,
and the challenge of articulate expression
of one’s own reasoning processes.
With this purpose in mind, therefore, we
extend to you an invitation to actively par-
_ ticipate in the stimulating activities of the
1961 Model General Assembly.

For Model UN |
The Cuban delegation denounc-
ing “Yankee imperialism” at the;
UN is worthy of news. It is when ,
Albany State is crying these words
and assuming the guise of Fidel ;
Castro’s revolutionary government. !
This was the scene March 24-26,
at the 1961 Mid-Atlantic Model ,
General Assembly in New York|
, City.
This conference is an annual ac-
* tivity of the Collegiate Council for
the United Nations. It is attended
by delegates from more than fifty
colleges and universities in the
mid-Atlantic area. Each school as-
sumes the role of one member na-
tion. The purpose of the conference
is to create a model of the UN Gen- |
eral Assembly and its six commit-
tees, with cach college represent- ;
ing a particular country, i
Many delegations received brief- |
ings on Friday afternoon from a |
representative of their assigned
nation’s mission to the UN. Due to
. the sudden death of the Cuban am-
bassador to the UN, however, the
Albany State delegation was unable |
