so long Windy City

I cannot believe that we are leaving! sad sad day. I was on the Legal Committee. We talked about Criminal Accountability of United Nation officials. I enjoyed my committee. All of the delegates were very prepared and presented valid arguements. Since we were Niger, we were very small in comparison to last years Italy delegation. I think that the Columbia College ladies did a fabulous job representing Niger.
My favorite part of the conference is definitely our keynote speaker. Mr. Paul Rusesabagina. It was an honor to hear him speak. as you have probably read previous blogs about who he is, i will not explain in great details. I never thought that i would meet someone so influential as him. I am greatly inspired by him, and hope to advocate around campus for his foundation.
although i am sad that we are leaving, i have learned so much about myself and other countries throughout my experience here at the Model United Nations Conference. I am thankful that i have had the opportunity to be a delegate from Columbia College and I am also thankful that this program was not cut from the programs at our college.
Thank you all for your support and encouragement!
I look forward to next year. I know that i will be a Columbia College graduate at that time, but i will still support the delegates and Dr. Jones.

Adios!
