The University of California, Berkeley Model United Nations (UCBMUN) conference took place this past weekend in sunny San Francisco. Secretary-General Aniket Patil led a staff of over 70 students to host a conference for over 320 delegates. The conference has a mix of UN committees and crisis committees (including a three-way joint crisis) and is still the largest conference on the West Coast. Delegates are invited to share their experience on the UCBMUN 2012 Facebook page.
The delegation awards went to:
Best Large Delegation: University of Chicago
Best Small Delegation: Harvard University
Golden Bear Award (Best California Delegation): Claremont McKenna College

Berkeley certainly did not disappoint being the center of the Model UN universe for a weekend. Both the BMUN high school conference and UCBMUN college conference had plenty of action and we have links to all the liveblog articles below!
