Dear Dr. Phan:

It's been fifteen years since my graduation from Rider and more than 17 years since my first exposure to the Model U.N. For me, Model U.N. was my most important experience at Rider.  Your web-site stated it accurately, the experience absolutely allowed us to believe that we could – in fact-- compete with anyone in the country.  What a wonderful gift you gave us !!

Dr. Phan, I truly want to thank you for your leadership and insight.  You were right when you told us that perception does – in fact -- equal reality.  For all that you've done, and for the future of Rider's Model U.N., please accept my modest donation.  Thanks for allowing me to be part of Rider's Model U.N. history.

Sincerely,

Steve Meizlish
