The QuadPod Takes you Inside the Harvard Model Congress Conference

The most recent QuadPod features the Harvard Model Congress event that took place in San Francisco last month and some challenges with travel delays that made the trip particularly memorable!

Listen here and travel along with 11 Baylor students for an insider's perspective of the prestigious government simulation conference in the city by the bay.  Hear students debate the most pressing issues facing our country today, and learn gain insights from faculty sponsor Mary Beth Hopping, who works in the Upper School Learning Center as a humanities specialist and is a former Model UN competitor.

This episode is hosted by Mike Kelly, QuadPod "coach" and chaperone on the trip. Student voices include delegates Shanina Dong, sophomore; and juniors Benjamin Daniel, Eric Zheng, Tate Harrison, Grace Simmons, Finn Ryan, Julia Gardner, Ella Grace Lazenby, Alisha Chandra, Luci Hemphill, and Harper Kelly.

We hope you enjoy!
