The ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï Model UN Society's premier on-campus activity, ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï United Nations Day, commemorates the creation of the United Nations in 1945. Co-sponsored by the ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï chapter of UNA-USA, UN Day is your opportunity to learn about simulations, conferences and how the United Nations really works.

±¬ÁϹÏ's UN Day 2024 was an extraordinary success. Students were registered for over 80 countries, representing Hampton University, Norfolk State University, ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï and Regent University. It was intense and raucous, with weeks of UN debate compressed in a six-hour simulation. Awards went to six participants—newcomers all.
