Benjamin Clingman
Under Secretary-General Social Events
Ben is currently in his first year of an undergraduate history degree at St. Catherine’s College. He is the Under-Secretary General for social events, responsible for organising the fantastic range of social opportunities on offer at OxIMUN 2017.
Social events are an incredibly important part of every MUN experience: they allow delegates the chance to form lasting friendships with students from every part of the globe in an informal setting outside of committees. They are also a chance to make the most of what can often be brief trips, and take advantage of everything Oxford has to of all who visit.
With considerable chairing experience, and having served on numerous secretariats, including as Secretary-General for CLSMUN 2015, Ben is well versed in the world of MUN. Building on past experiences, he hopes to ensure that every aspect of OxIMUN is a truly amazing and memorable experience for every delegate attending.

Theo Cornish
Deputy Under Secretary-General Logistic and Operations
Theo is a first year undergraduate reading History at Trinity College. As deputy logistics secretary, he is jointly responsible for assembling the venues and staff of the conference.
Theo first got involved in MUN three years ago after attending his school's conference, and since has attended ones which have taken him as far afield as New York. Theo finds travel one of the main attractions of MUN to him, as well as the ethos of compromise and collaboration that stands behind it, which contrasts sharply with the inflexibility of conventional debating.
While studying at Oxford Theo has also got involved with his college squash and rowing teams, while in the holidays he helps to teach public speaking, English and debating programs abroad, for which his experience in MUN is invaluable.
Roxy Orloff
Under Secretary-General Press and Promotions
Roxy is in her first year reading for a BA in Philosophy, Politics and Economics at St. Hugh's College. For OxIMUN 2017 she has the role of Under-Secretary General for Press and Promotion, meaning she works mainly on social media encouraging people to take part in OxIMUN.
Press and Promotion is a core part of MUN, allowing delegates to stay on top of news and information, and also allowing them to relive the memories for years to come.
Having only taken part in MUN once before as a delegate, she's a newcomer to the organisational side of MUN and is excited to get to know everyone involved, develop her role and see what OxIMUN is all about! She hopes everyone is welcomed as warmly as she was, and that the delegates all have as lovely and interesting an experience as possible.
