Head Delegates

In addition to the faculty advisor, Dr. Matthew Bolton, the Pace NYC Model UN program is co-facilitated by Head Delegates. Our Head Delegates for the 2012/2013 academic year are:

Kimberley Alonso – “I am a Communications Studies major and Political Science minor. I have been a part of Pace University’s Model UN organization for two years. Model UN offers students of all majors a unique experience to learn about global politics while growing as a student. As a Head Delegate, I enjoy being a resource and friend who can guide others through this program. As a student, I continue to participate in Model UN because the knowledge gained from the course is unlike any other experience I have been a part of. ”

Katie James — “My name is Katie James and I am a junior majoring in Political Science and minoring in Peace and Justice Studies and History. This is my second year leading the team as head delegate, and it has been an incredible experience. I am a part of Model UN because I enjoy the opportunities it provides to everyone; it is a gateway to learning and understanding policy and diplomacy. Model UN has changed my college career, allowing for passions and friendships to develop. Being a part of a team such as Model UN allows for you to learn a lot about yourself, and I have enjoyed helping others to find their inner talents!”

Elena Marmo — “I am a sophomore Political Science major and Peace and Justice Studies minor at Pace University. I have been participating in Model UN for two years with Pace University, and throughout high school I participated in Model Congress. I am involved in Model UN because I believe that it is a unique learning experience that provides delegates with the opportunity to understand simulation, global politics, and skills that are useful in and out of Model UN. I feel that partaking in Model UN has helped further my education of the world and how politics work in a way that no usual classroom can provide. Model UN is an excellent way to help students understand the importance of their role in a global society.”

Michael Zona — “I am a senior studying Political Science and History, and I have been involved in Model UN for eight years, accumulating experience in every imaginable committee.”
