Dear Delegates, Faculty Advisors, and Friends,
On behalf of our Secretariat and staff, we are thrilled to welcome you to the Twenty-Eighth Session of ChoMUN, the University of Chicago’s Intercollegiate Model United Nations Conference, which will be held from Thursday, April 17th through Sunday, April 20th, 2025, at the Palmer House Hilton in downtown Chicago.
Ranked as the Delegate’s Choice for Best Conference according to Best Delegate, ChoMUN has grown into the largest and most competitive crisis-focused conference in North America. This spring, ChoMUN XXVIII will host over 1,000 delegates and staff, maintaining our 3:1 delegate-to-staff ratio to ensure that our committees offer each delegate a personalized and engaging committee experience. Our commitment to the delegate experience and committee innovation continue to drive us forward, and this year we’ll run 29 dynamic and fast-paced committees, including Crisis and General Assembly style committees.
This year we’re focused on bringing untold and diverse histories to the forefront of the collegiate circuit, while providing committees for the full range of delegate experience levels. We’re proud to offer several advanced committees, as well as our backbone of thought-provoking traditional Crisis and GA committees. As always, everything we do is guided by our commitment to ChoMUN’s signature legacy: deeply-researched committees run by subject matter experts. Our greatest strength is the academic dedication of our executive staff, who have taken up independent research projects, coursework, and even new majors in order to ensure the substantive quality of each committee. From political intrigue in the courts of the Ming dynasty to social activism in the music halls of New Orleans, ChoMUN represents what this activity is really about: collaborating with new friends to tell meaningful, powerful stories.
This small snapshot of ChoMUN only scratches the surface of our offerings, and our dedicated staff will work tirelessly to ensure that the delegate experience, both substantively and socially, is the best yet. Browse through our website to see all of the committees and opportunities offered at ChoMUN XXVIII, and please reach out if you have any questions.
As we approach the 28th ChoMUN, we hope you will help us build on our legacy to usher in a new era of ChoMUN and Model UN that would have been unimaginable when we began with just a few dozen delegates in 1998 on the University of Chicago campus. We look forward to welcoming you to the Twenty-Eighth Session of ChoMUN at the Palmer House this year!
Best,
Chinara Wyke
Secretary-General
ChoMUN XXVIII
