Victory at Oxford!

West Point wins 'best' at Oxford.

The West Point Model United Nations team won a huge victory this weekend at the Oxford University Model United Nations conference in the UK.

Six of the eight cadets competing won an individual committee award, five of the six were named "best delegate" in their committee. When the conference Secretary General announced West Point's "Best Delegation" award, she remarked that the "saturation of talent" on this team was unprecedented, while the team racked up a better overall win ratio than any previous Oxford competitors.

The cadets' victory is even more impressive given the fact that the Oxford conference attracts a very large percentage of graduate students and law students from the best universities in Europe. The cadets were competing against nearly 500 students from 38 universities.

James White ('10): representing India in the Historical General Assembly
