Summer Greetings, Want to learn more about Model UN and get a jump start for conferences in the fall? Consider attending a Houston area summer camp hosted by Lone Star College on July 23rd- August 2nd. The Brisack Home is offering lodging for any out of town students. Also – The Brisack Van is taking reservations for students who need transportation to the camp. If you have a willing student – we'll make this summer camp happen! The Lone Star Model UN Summer Camp will meet Monday through Thursday from 1 to 5 (July 23 – August 2nd) at the University Park Campus. The instructor, Cassandra Khatri, is a dynamic professor and the camp fee is only $189.00 for two fantastic weeks of instruction. She has even offered to help our Model UN club next year -- as long as times don't conflict with her Lone Star Campus College MUN team -- what a great opportunity we have been given! I met with Professor Khatri this summer and appreciated her enthusiasm for high school students' participation in Model UN. While the websites below do not provide detailed information about the Model UN Prep Camp I do believe the director, Professor Khatri, will provide a rich and rewarding educational experience to the participants. Professor Khatri plans to take the students through the entire process of preparing for a conference and on the last day of the summer program the students will participate in a mock committee session.
