2026 Committee Types
A foundation of our Middle School conference is to be a teaching event, one that offers Model UN in an approachable format even to the terrified first year delegate. Our two committee types are standard and advanced. These offerings ensure any delegate can find a place at our conference. We hope to offer a wider range of experiences to our delegates and be a stepping stone for their MUN career. Please read the descriptions below to understand the significance of this change.
Standard
WHO, SOCHUM
Delegate Prep Work: Position Paper (PP) and List of Possible Solutions (LoPS)
Conference Experience: These committees are our conference standard with all skill levels welcome! In this committee, delegates will begin learning the mechanics of debate through the low-stakes environment of a mock debate. Then high school staff will guide them into formal debate and provide continuous support as delegates begin applying these parli pro and debate skills. Once in formal debate, high school staff will then also teach delegates about writing and introducing resolutions (the high school equivalent of LoPS).
Advanced
Legal
Delegate Prep Work: PP and Resolution
Conference Experience: This committee is for the delegate who is ready to elevate their experience. The topic in this committee is a little more challenging than the others and may require more research. Instead of writing a List of Possible Solutions (LoPS) like the other committees, Legal delegates will prepare resolutions (the high school standard) ahead of the conference. At the conference they will still start with a mock debate but will spend less time on teaching the fundamentals of parliamentary procedures. This committee will have a docket, in which some pre-written resolutions will be selected to start the debate. This committee most closely resembles our high school experience and will surely prepare them for the next conference in the ALTMUN system.
