Senior Alex Flynn Takes Top Honors at Model UN
GCHS senior Alex Flynn was named “Best Delegate” and received the conference gavel
at the Tenth Annual Model United Nations held on the campus of Seton Hall University
in April. Faculty member and attorney Kevin Heil led the seven member GCHS contingent
to the event sponsored by the Whitehead School for International Diplomacy.
“Model UN provides an outlet for students to learn how nations of the world work
together to resolve conflicts in a spirit of cooperation and peace. This is the
fifth time Gloucester Catholic has participated in such a program and I am pleased
to be able to facilitate it,” explained Mr. Heil. Each delegation was assigned a
country and the students had the responsibility to research the political, economic,
social and geographic issues of their country, as well as review their nation's
voting records and learning who their allies and opponents are. Students acted as
ambassadors for their country as they worked to resolve UN issues.
The GCHS contingent at the event included seniors Alex Flynn, Chris Seigel, Alex
Hickman and Mary Kate LaRocco and juniors Kara Itaas, Marie Roantree, Savannah Pailoz.
