Hey delegates! Be sure to “like” our Facebook page to make sure you’re the first to know about exciting conference updates! The link is on the left sidebar of this page.

The following material should be helpful in preparing for BosMUN XI.  All delegates should start with BosMUN 101, which gives a general introduction to the entire conference as well as committee-specific rules and procedures.  BosMUN 102 is a more advanced training guide that our collegiate team has compiled with strategies to help make you the best delegate in the room.  Remember, you may always email your chair with questions or comments before the conference starts!

 

Code of Conduct – This document lays out the rules by which you must abide throughout the conference. You should note that we require you to wear Western Business Attire at opening ceremonies and during all committee sessions.

Rules of Procedure – This document explains the rules by which committee sessions will be run. It is based on Roberts Rules of Order and is similar to the manner in which most Model UN conferences operate. There are some specific differences in BosMUN’s rules, but these can easily be learned by reading through the document and by following our committee chairs’ guidance during the conference.

Awards Policy – This document explains BosMUN XI’s awards policy.

BosMUN 101 & 102 – These documents were created by the BosMUN Secretariat and BU’s Travel Team Head Delegate. They provide a basic overview of introductory delegate training and advanced delegate training. We will also have panels for beginner delegate training and advanced delegate training with some of our best delegates and chairs at the conference, where you can ask more in-depth questions. Please note that these guides are password-protected just like the Mini-Guides and Background Guides.

Crisis Committee Briefing – This explains the document types delegates will use (instead of Resolutions) in our Crisis Committees and most of our Specialized Agencies.

Position Paper Guidlines – This document explains the proper format and due dates for BosMUN Position Papers, which are required from each delegate in order to be eligible for an award.
