October 8, 2006

Sixteen Seton Hall students competed in the Security Council Simulation at Yale University in early October. John Tomaselli, Gino Chiriboga, George Dekermenji earned "Outstanding Delegate" awards for their work in the International Monetary Fund, the Organization of American States and the Egyptian Joint Crisis Cabinet, respectively. Students Elaine Banner and Matt Ford earned Honorable Mentions for their work in the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, respectively.

The John C. Whitehead School of Diplomacy and International Relations prepares students from around the world to become leaders in a global society. Its innovative graduate and undergraduate programs provide students with the critical skills and knowledge needed for international careers in public service, business, law and the nonprofit sector. Through a unique alliance with the United Nations Association of the United States of America, students are exposed to today’s leaders and policymakers while experiencing diplomacy at work.

Students come from throughout the United States and nearly 50 countries to participate in a multidisciplinary curriculum that emphasizes global studies, multilateral diplomacy, conflict resolution, international economics and leadership. A distinguished faculty of scholars and professionals bring cutting edge theory and practical perspectives to the classroom. They are joined by a team of experienced and dedicated administrators committed to mentoring and empowering students to succeed both academically and personally.
