April 28 -29 the Model Arab League hosted an event in Strong Hall.  Drs. David Romano and Ashley Leinweber hosted the event.  The Model Arab League is a group similar to the Model United Nations but is based on the influential Arab-specific international organization.  The group learn about the Arab League, the member countries and the issues they face. The event brought together students from Drury, University of Missouri, Missouri State University and Ozark High School.

Dr. Romano’s class won the Overall Distinguished Delegation Award for representing Syria.  Dr. Leinweber’s students received several awards too as did Drury and MU.  The high schoolers did not win any awards but seemed to enjoy the experience.
