Princeton Model United Nations Conference - PMUNC

Thank you to everyone who attended PMUNC this past weekend. The staffers and Secretariat were deeply impressed by your passion for each and every committee, as well as your commitment to the educational mission that we hoped to maintain throughout the course of the entire conference. This weekend would not have been such a success without each of our nearly 1000 delegates, and we hope to see you next year at PMUNC 2020!

Friendly reminder that the deadline for PMUNC 2019 early registration is 9/13. Register early for a $60 waiver in delegation fees, a $5 reduction in per-delegate fees, and priority country assignments!

Introducing your PMUNC 2019 Under Secretary-General of Operations, Connor Larson:

"Hi, I'm Connor Larson, and I'll be the USG of Operations at PMUNC 2019. I'm a sophomore from Greenwich, CT, and I plan on majoring in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. I'm also a captain of Princeton's Sailing team, and a member of the rocketry team on campus. At Princeton Model United Nations Conference 2019, my job as USG of operations is to make sure that we have as smooth of a conference as we can for all Delegates, Advisors and Staffers. I look forward to helping run an efficient and enjoyable conference for all of our attendees this year!"

Meet your 2019 PMUNC Director-General of Crisis Committees, Justin Curl!

"Hi everyone! My name is Justin, and I am very excited to serve as your Director General of Crisis! I’m a sophomore from Los Angeles, California, and I’m happy to talk to you about the greatest state at any point in time. On campus, I’m a proud computer science major who spends a lot of time in non-STEM activities. I am formerly a vocal member of TCM and am involved with Model UN, Debate, several IM basketball teams (I love LAbron), and the Whig party, a liberal political group.

Really looking forward to meeting you all at PMUNC 2019, and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out to me!"

Introducing your PMUNC 2019 Director-General of Specialized Committees, Isra Thange:

"Hi everyone! My name is Isra, and I am incredibly excited to serve as your Director General of Specialized Committees! I’m a sophomore hailing from the faraway land of Franklin Park, New Jersey, which you can find after a whole twenty minute ride from campus! At Princeton, I'm majoring in the Woodrow Wilson School, with certificates in Near Eastern Studies and the History and Practice of Diplomacy. On campus, I am the Vice President of the International Relations Council, a member of the Model UN team, and an attorney on the Mock Trial team. In my free time, I enjoy reading, discovering new food around campus, and aimlessly talking about everything. I am really looking forward to meeting you all in November!"

Meet your Director-General of GA Committees, Aryaman Khandelwal!

"Hi! I’m Aryaman Khandelwal and I’m honored to serve as your Director-General of General Assembly! I’m currently a sophomore planning on concentrating in Operations Research and Financial Engineering. When I’m not working to get you the best GA experience possible, I compete on Princeton’s MUN and mock trial teams, work as a junior analyst at Tiger Capital Management, and act in Princeton’s South Asian Theatrics company. In my free time, you can find me running Get2Greater, a social venture that uses a novel system of mobile tablets and an app to better deliver healthcare in rural areas of developing countries or talking about public education and pitching a new platform to increase student motivation."

Introducing your PMUNC 2019 Chief of Staff, Courtney Cappelli:

"Hello everyone! I’m Courtney, your Chief of Staff. I’m a sophomore from California (though, believe it or not, from neither Los Angeles or the Bay Area) and a STEM dropout planning to major in the Woodrow Wilson School. In addition to being a member of the Model UN team here at Princeton, I quite enjoy reading the evidence code with my Mock Trial team, working with the Princeton University Nonprofit Consulting group, occasionally visiting my room to sleep, and spending time with your beautiful and wonderful Secretariat. I can’t wait to see you all in November!"

Meet your PMUNC 2019 Chargé d‘Affaires, Martha Yin!

"Hello everyone! My name is Martha, and I am beyond excited to be serving as this conference’s Chargé D'Affaires. I was born in Toronto, Canada, but I grew up in the lovely and deeply southern city of Montgomery, Alabama. Currently, I am a sophomore at Princeton majoring in Operations Research and Financial Engineering. On campus, I am involved with the Pace Center for Civic Engagement, China Social Impact Project, Club Swim. I love traveling, eating, and combining the previous two activities by taking spontaneous trips to New York and Philadelphia to sample earl grey cream puffs, golden spice lattes, crab soup dumplings, and burger-grilled cheese sandwich hybrids."

Meet your PMUNC 2019 Secretary-General, Ben Ryu!

"Hi! My name is Ben, and I am a sophomore from Seoul, South Korea, concentrating in public policy. Although I currently live in South Korea, I spent the majority of my childhood in the United States in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Windsor, Connecticut. As such, I am a devout Pittsburgh Steelers fan and believe that the coming season is the season that the Steelers reclaim the Lombardi Trophy. On campus, I am involved with MUN, Club Volleyball, and the Korean Students' Association of Princeton. I am incredibly excited to serve as your Secretary-General of PMUNC 2019!"
