A day in the life of an admin

By Radhika Joshi, Chatsworth International School

2E9A4043In every MUN conference there are hundreds of delegates, student officers and directors that dominate the scene with their intellectual prowess. However, there are also the hidden stars of the conference, those who make sure that everything goes off without a hitch. Yes, it is the administrative staff. These are the secret heroes of the conference, tirelessly working to pass our notes and secure our doors. They make sure that the debates run smoothly and everyone is in the right place at the right time. Today, we interviewed various admin members about their side of the THIMUN conference, what is the best and worst part about their job:

“Being able to serve and facilitate the event is the best part, and the hardest part is the preparation, because we have to go around the whole school setting up tables and chairs for everyone.”

“We do it because we can serve people, but the hardest part is that there is a lot to keep track of. There are a lot of people managing. Accents are also difficult, because sometimes the other delegates cannot understand us and we cannot understand them.”

“The best part is that I enjoy serving in this way to help facilitate THIMUN and to see the delegates enjoy themselves. It is hard to please everyone and satisfy everyone’s demands, because it is sometimes not in our power to do so, so it is quite hard for us to see someone unhappy.”

“It is the satisfaction of helping people get around. But the hardest part is all of the manual labor because we need to carry around a lot of things and there are a lot of steps.”

“It is interesting and fun, because there are many jobs and you have to do them to your best ability. You are the one interacting with the delegates so you get to know them very well and make lots of friends. The hardest part is all of the walking because the school is huge and the locations are sometimes far apart.”
