===Model United Nations (MUN)===
 +
Ballot has always had a long history of participating in MUN, but starting with the 2022-2023 academic year, MUN became a seperate committee under Ballot rather than part of the overall Ballot club. MUN participants roleplay as delegates from various countries and simulate the United Nations, with the hope of getting students to understand and educate themselves on world issues as well as gain leadership and communication skills.
