Due to the amazing conferences that are provided, students are expected to earn their way onto the plane. At each conference a head delegate will be assigned to deal with logistical coordination as well as serve as an active leader for all other delegates. The successes of Monmouth\u2019s Model UN Team comes from the immense support of the university community and the university\u2019s Strategic Plan. The Office of Global Education, the Honors School, and the Office of the Provost are monumental to our club\u2019s growth due to their unwavering support of student initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"advisors\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advisors<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-mu-people alignfull  \">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-mu-person card wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile is-style-vertical person-32212256239   has-photo\">\n\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"560\" height=\"560\" style=\"object-position: 50.52% 48.91%\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/directory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/476\/2013\/05\/Kevin-Dooley-Profile.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-post-image\" alt=\"Photo of Kevin L.
