Music for committee


Hello Delegates, 

I hope you are all as excited for committee as we are! As mentioned in previous outreach UNCSW is dedicated to creating a safe, welcoming, and fun environment for you all, while also cultivating a feminist ethics of care. As such, we find that music is a great way to begin committee, destress during breaks, and to bring one another together. 

UNCSW will be playing music before and after committee and during breaks. Me and your vice-chairs are already putting together a playlist for committee, but we also want your input! Please comment on this blog some songs you would like to possibly here in committee (we probably won't have time to play every song but we will try to make it through as many as possible). This is not a requirement for committee, but is a fun way for us to begin building community. 

Some rules on music. All songs must be school appropriate. This means no profane language, graphic or sexual imagery, and nothing that could make other delegates feel uncomfortable. Essentially, if your teachers wouldn't let you play the song in class neither will we. 

With all that being said we are excited to see and listen to some of your music suggestions, and we hope this helps to decrease any stress or anxiety you all may be feeling about conference. As always please feel free to reach out to us at uncswbmunlxxi@bmun.org.

Hello, Delegates!!! Welcome to BMUN 71’s UN Commission on the Status of Women. My name is James Crawford (he/him/his) and I am happy to serve as your head chair for this session. I know that BMUN can sometimes be very stressful and intimidating, so let me introduce myself and hopefully de-mystify the committee. I am a transfer senior at UC Berkeley studying political theory, and my research interests concern the ways in which technology (mainly artificial intelligence and space exploration) affect conceptions of gender and political institutions. I am from Southern California, right in-between Palm Springs and Riverside, and I used to work in local and federal politics and policy. I am a cat-dad, lover of all things coffee, politics, and Golden Girls, and I am a huge book nerd. This is only my second year being involved in any sort of Model UN, and so I am excited to learn what you all can teach me through experience. Amisha Wadhwa is a senior at Berkeley, majoring in Business Administ...

S.M.A.R.T Resolutions

 Hi you all! I hope everyone is getting pumped for our conference that is in exactly one month! Position paper deadlines are coming up, and since I’m sure you’re all working on resolutions. This committee will be putting a lot of weight into the content of resolutions during conference. And so we want to go over a technique in making solutions, called creating “S.M.A.R.T. Goals,” that can make your solutions stronger and more applicable to conference. S.M.A.R.T. is an acronym which stands for:  S-specific M-measurable A-actionable R-relevant T-timely An example of a solution that is not S.M.A.R.T. is “create a fund with the help of the world bank.” This could be more specific because the goal doesn’t specify what the fund is being created for. It could be more measurable because you could include the total amount of money and the amount used per year. It is somewhat actionable because it is an actual achievable goal, but due to its lack of specificity, it is not clear how to ...
