THE WATERGATE
SCANDAL

On June 17th, 1972, five men were apprehended wiretapping phones at the Democratic National Committee Headquarters in the Watergate Hotel. Currently, no one knows why this break-in occurred -- except, of course, for the members of this committee. As the conspirators in the Watergate scandal, you must act quickly to calm public fear and minimize political aftershocks.  As lawyers, political campaigners, White House aides, press experts, CIA agents, etc., you will have to work together to cover up this blunder; Richard Nixon's presidency must be saved. Good luck!

About the Chairs 

Hello delegates! My name is Sarah Schlapp and I am currently a senior at The Masters School. I have been a part of Model UN for several years now; I served as one of the Crisis Directors at the past two MASMUNC conferences, and I was also a co-chair for a Technology and Security committee in the 10th grade. Besides Model UN, I love to read (specifically Jane Austen and John Grisham!), embroider, and crochet. This year, I’m thrilled to serve as one of your co-chairs for MASMUNC’s Watergate committee (which is a topic I have become fascinated with after having just finished APUSH!). I’m looking forward to meeting you all at MASMUNC!

Hi everyone! My name is Lucas Camacho, and I am a senior at the Masters School. I will be one of the co-chairs for The Watergate Scandal Committee. My Model UN journey began in freshman year, and have loved it ever since. I also enjoy reading, biking, and volleyball. If you have any questions, please email lucas.camacho@mastersny.org. I look forward to seeing all of you here at MASMUNC!

Hello I am Malachy Green. I am very excited to be your crisis chair. I have been doing Model UN for 5 years and have been doing crisis that entire time. I have participated in various historical crises set in World War I, and the Soviet Union, for example, as well as fictional worlds such as Marvel and DnD. Outside of Model UN, my main interest is theater, where I constantly participate in various plays and musicals. I am also the famous king of delegate karaoke. I cannot wait to meet all of you and see what your crisis notes bring.
