From the Desk of the RCMUN XVI
Secretary General
Esteemed advisors, delegates, parents, and staff
I am honored to announce the 16th installment of Red Cedar Model United Nations, Michigan State’s own middle school United Nations Conference. My name is Ethan Pyscher, and I have the privilege of serving as Secretary-General of RCMUN XVI. This year, the conference will be hosted on February 20th, 2027. RCMUN XVI will continue to be hosted at one of our university’s landmarks of excellence, Broad College of Business.
One key theme surrounding the vision of RCMUN XVI is “growth”. Growth encompasses the learning opportunities for middle school delegates and drives our mission to create a conference that adapts to the contemporary needs of students. Before the conference in February, students will already be growing their skills in research, writing, and preparation. During the conference itself, delegates will apply these skills by interacting with other delegates, learning how to navigate conflict, establish their arguments, and foster cooperation. More than anything, I can guarantee that every delegate will be having a lot of fun in the process. Growth is also literal: RCMUN XVI is excited to announce the addition of a third crisis committee this year! We hope this change, along with others, helps to create a conference where more middle school students from across the country can learn and act on issues spanning across the globe.
RCMUN could not exist without the contributions of the staff of Michigan State students who help run it. Our team of dedicated staffers selects and develops topics that are both interesting to delegates and critically engaging. These committees and resources, such as their Backgrounds Guides they create, have been formatted to fit the abilities of a middle school delegate. During conference, the RCMUN team is committed to providing a space of safety and learning, where delegates can feel comfortable solving even the most pressing issues of our time (or for our historical committees, another time!)
If you are an advisor for an already established Model United Nations club, a teacher, or another individual interested in joining RCMUN, please reach out to me! With the goal of growth this year, I am determined that RCMUN XVI will be accessible to any potential delegate, as they begin their journey to becoming future leaders. I am passionate about providing them with a conference that will serve as an early stepping stone for diplomacy, stewardship, and cooperation. For any inquiries about RCMUN XVI, reach out to [email protected].
All the best,
Ethan Pyscher
