Nearly 100 high school students – from Tipp City to Toledo – participated in a Model UN on the ONU campus on Saturday.

Before arriving in Ada, the students were given a country to represent and studied that nation, especially its politics. Then, on campus, the students voted in a mock General Assembly how they thought the country they represented would vote.

The difficult issues discussed were:
• Nuclear disarmament and non-profileration;
• Children in armed conflict;
• Terrorism, cybersecurity and the threat of cyberwarfare.
