Introducing Vice Chair Eric Wang

Hey all!

My name is Eric Wang and I'm excited to be one of your vice chairs for BMUN 70. I'm a junior studying Computer Science here at Berkeley. As a Bay Area native I competed here at BMUN in high school. Outside of Model UN, I'm conducting research on operator interfaces for unmanned aerial vehicles, learning how to ballroom dance, and am an avid board game player. Also, I'm always on the hunt for good movies and TV shows so please drop some in the comments below.

See you at conference!

From our collective experience as chairs, we believe that this procedure is the best method to promote thoughtful debate while also enabling the dynamic nature of crisis committees. This procedure also lends itself to our committees in that delegates will be representing members of a sort of cabinet or alliance that must discuss and debate on what  collective actions to take as a united front while also getting regular updates to the situation of Spain.  For those of you not familiar with BMUN or any crisis procedure, I'll give a brief overview here. Crisis committees at BMUN use similar procedures to General Assembly committees with some key differences. We will facilitate discussion in committee with moderated and unmoder
