For the eleventh year in a row.<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"BYU's<\/a>
I could only find a useable photograph of the WOMEN in this year\u2019s BYU Model UN delegation. But who cares about the men anyway, right? In any case, this photo serves my purpose, which is simply to boast\u00a0that one of the members of\u00a0the delegation \u2014 the third woman from the left, with blonde hair \u2014 is one of my current students. (I don\u2019t think that I\u2019m authorized to, or should, mention her name here.)
Click to enlarge the photo.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

And, as I believe I\u2019ve already mentioned here, BYU\u2019s Model Arab League team \u2014 featuring all three of my current teaching assistants and at least one other of my current students \u2014 took the regional competition in Denver a couple of weeks ago:<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

That team is back in Washington DC this weekend, competing in the national Model Arab League event.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

It\u2019s really good to have good students and good teaching assistants.<\/p>\n
