CIRUNA AT HOME AND ABROAD

CIRUNA or Council on International Relations United Nations Affairs, is a collegiate organization on campus for students interested in all aspects of international relations from the world hunger problem to international politics. It is an educational organization affiliated with other councils on campuses across the United States. It is the largest  collegiate organization of any nature in America.

CIRUNA activities began with the start of classes. In addition to meetings twice a month which include guest lectures, films, and discussions, major programs are carried out throughout the year. It is CIRUNA's policy to create activities and make them available. Their success is measured by student participation.

Trygve Lie Model United Nations: The most important event for CIRUNA this first semester is our Model United Nations. Held on December 4, 5, and 6, students from campuses all over the Midwest attend to discuss current issues in the same style as the United Nations. Each delegate will represent one nation in committee and General Assembly. This year topics for discussion will include the Mid-East conflict, Southern Rhodesia, Apartheid, Chemical Warfare, Southwest Africa, and the defining of aggression. 

Walks for Development: Last year, 12,000 dollars was raised through our Hike for Hunger. Fifteen hundred adults and students walked a course of twenty-seven miles through Iowa City to graphically demonstrate the urgent need to solve the problem of poverty and hunger in the world. This year another hike will be planned, and CIRUNA will again take an active aprt.

Biafra Food and Relief: Africa again is the scene of turmoil in our world. Last year CIRUNA raised $500.00 for relief to Biafra. This year a drive in the fall will be scheduled. The purpose of this drive is to gain funds for food for Biafra and also to make the student body vitally aware of this international problem.

CIRUNA not only has a responsibility to the students but also a responsibility to the students but also a responsibility to the community as a whole. This year CIRUNA members
