MUNthly - The MUN Newspaper - Dec 2013

Welcome to the home of MUNthly!

The official newspaper of the Model United Nations
on The Student Room

Hello you lovely people,

The MUN newspaper is here! I've already begun designing the layout and structure of the newspaper and this is due to be completed over the coming weeks... however I need your help!

Your submissions, comments, suggestions and thoughts will determine what this newspaper turns out to be like - I'll write the odd article certainly but ultimately it's down to you guys.

Suggestions

•

MUN Member of the Month

•

Who's Who?

•

Reports and Appeals

•

Opinion articles

•

A word from the Secretary General

•

A word from the Deputy Secretary General

•

Recent Election round ups with some commentary

•

Security Council member interviews

•

Analysis of polls, voting and results (in the form of pie charts, tables, graphs)

There can be more! What you'd like to see in your newspaper is up to you!

So now, I really need you guys to step up to the plate - submit what you like, articles, comment, cartoons, statistics, pie charts, analysis, reports, position papers etc. What you'd like to write about, go for it!

Submissions should either:

Be emailed to me at tsrmodelunitednations[at]hotmail.co.uk
Sent to me via Private Message

I'd prefer them to be emailed as I'm typing it into Word documents etc and it will be easier to organise as if its sent to me via PM then its amongst everything else... I shall email or private message you back to confirm that I've received it, if I don't message you within two days then assume I haven't got it and let me know.

As suggested by people over at the initial discussion thread, it would be great to get this done before Christmas so my deadline for submissions is Sunday 15th December 2013 then I'll hope to have the issue out on Friday 20th December 2013.

Have fun writing content for me and submit it early so I can begin to put things together. Remember submit anything, big or small.

Over the coming days, I will be asking some people in particular to take part in interviews (not face to face!) so feel free to take part if you wish.

Finally...

I need a co-editor!

This needs to be someone with a bit of a flare for writing, can be organised, methodical, systematic and generally fun to work with! I'd prefer it to not be one of the DSG candidates but if you're unsuccessful, you're welcome to put yourselves forward after the election is over.

Your role mostly would be to co-ordinate the interviews, help me organise submissions, content, you'd get a regular slot in the paper and you'd be able to submit your own ideas to the future development of the newspaper.

If you're interested, do PM me and I'll sort out a democratic way of choosing a co-editor!

Thanks for your support! As ever, any questions post here or drop me a message.

Kind regards,

RoryS
Secretary General
