Model United Nations 2024

Posted: May 7, 2024 by Morgan Adams

UNG’s 7th Annual Model United Nations Conference was held on Friday, March 29. This year’s theme was Addressing the Impacts that Artificial Intelligence has in the Current Digital Age. Fifty-one participants from various campuses and disciplines as broad as History, Political Science, International Affairs, Elementary Education, and Cybersecurity attended this all-day conference. The students represented 24 countries and were successful in passing three resolutions as they simulated the United Nations General Assembly.

Jointly organized by the Model United Nations Clubs on the Dahlonega and Gainesville campuses, the event was chaired by our very own PSIA students, Nathanael Hines and Jessica Case, with logistical support from club advisors Drs. Jon Miner and Bibek Chand.

Our Commitment To Our Students, Faculty, And Staff

At the University of North Georgia, we deeply value and uphold the cherished right of every American to freely express themselves. It is a hallmark of our history, our tradition, and permeates our culture. As a distinguished Senior Military College, with a legacy spanning over 150 years, we take great pride in our role of cultivating leaders who tirelessly defend these fundamental freedoms for all citizens. The legacy of our graduates in this regard is second to none.

As campus leaders, our primary responsibility is to cultivate an academic environment that ensures this exchange of ideas and the safety of our community. Across all five campuses, we are committed to fostering a welcoming atmosphere where individuals feel empowered to freely express themselves and engage in exploration and learning. However, it is essential that these rights are exercised in a manner that upholds our academic mission, preserves the safety of all, and is in accordance with our institutional policies, without unlawful behavior. This means breaking the law, harassment, intimidation, trespassing, violence, and other criminal acts will not be tolerated at the University of North Georgia.

Together, let's uphold the principles of respect, understanding, and civility as we equip our students to walk toward their purpose.

Bold Forward!
