Around the world in 3 days Model UN teaches life lessons By WARREN DILLAWAY - Staff Writer Star Beacon ASHTABULA — The three-day conference ended with an admonition to go and change the world.
An appropriate salutation after learning, and debating the issues of the day. More than 20 high schools were represented at the Lake Erie International United Nations event that concluded with Jefferson receiving second place honors in the large delegation division and Lakeside and Geneva tying for first place in the small delegation division. “I’m very proud of our students. I couldn’t ask for anything more,” said John Patterson, advisrr to the Jefferson Model UN. “I get to meet new people and see old friends,” said Lakeside senior Connor Bacon, who has participated for four years. “I’ve been just having a lot of fun,” said Tommy Sunderlin, also of Lakeside. Matt Wright, a junior from Geneva, was impressed with his peers. “My council was full of good people who knew what they were doing,” he said. Tristan Mizak, a sophomore at Geneva, said he learned it was difficult to move from one country’s policy to another during a session. Individual excellence awards included Jefferson students Donald Johnson, Gina Unsinger, Kelly Tisch, Eric Holodnak, Julia Mansfield, Emily Jeppeson, George Mansfield, Jasmine Pierson, Colton Hinkle, Justin Angra, Joanne Beckwith, Kevin Ford, Garrett Puzio, Nicole Hamper, Tyler Starcher and Cassie Picard. Edgewood students Jasnet Delvgun, Kacie Herron, Carey Santiana and Dillon Tackett also received awards of excellence.
