After all the simulations and preparations we did throughout the semester, it was exciting to go to New York and be a representative of both the Rider University and Botswana.  It was a physically and psychically hard effort to prepare papers, to listen to and give speeches, to negotiate nearly the whole day.  But in the end, when the paper become a draft resolution, the voting procedure took place, and the work of many hours was rewarded with a majority vote, I had the feeling that we all had done a good job.  I will never forget that moment, and of course nothing else that made this week the most valuable experience in my academic education.
