我要评论Historically, students who participate in Model United Nations have a certain reputation: They're insufferably upbeat nerds with poor posture who are bullied for completely understandable reasons. 。
As a former Model UN participant and dropout, I can say this with authority. I can also say I'm not alone in wishing that many of those exact same teenagers—every single one of whom had more foreign policy education than our Secretary of State when he started—had positions with our State Department. 。

Below, a few elementary lessons in diplomacy a bunch of 13 year olds can teach the current administration. 。
1. Nurture your allies, don't destroy them in your first 24 hours in the game 。
The next time you're thinking of kicking up a fight with Australia, one of our main allies during World War II, do what Model UN kids do: play nice in public, then make fun of their SAT scores on the bus ride home. 。
2. If you don't know what you're talking about, at least read the Wikipedia page beforehand 。2. If you don't know what you're talking about, at least read the Wikipedia page beforehand 。

Model UN students often go on very little information, but that doesn't stop these Dartmouth wannabes from professing to know everything just because their mom google searched it for them. 。

4. Be warned: Russia is super dangerous and not your friend 。Russia (aka Valley Regional High School) wants to see you fail. Don't be fooled just because they've offered you back to their hotel room later for golden showers/to drink Mike's hard lemonade. 。
5. Don't make out with foreign adversaries/kids from other high schools 。

That's against team rules! And in Trump's case, could mean the end of the world. If you're going to be impeached, at least do something original.
。6. Eat Pizza Hut the right way or face banishment 。
Late night Pizza Hut is a staple of the Model UN diet. Please eat their garbage pizza the way real humans do. 。
7. Don't make the skinny kid on your team do all your work for you 。

Just because he's small and does his homework doesn't mean its his job to lift up the entire country. 。
8. Remember you are here to solve diplomatic crises, not sell weed in the bathroom 。
Don't take advantage of your position to push your private business, whether that's janky weed or memberships to your overcooked steak club. 。
9. Brevity is the soul of wit, not international diplomacy 。
Model UN kids produce long, thorough policy pronouncements that often approach 12 pages.。
The current administration does this. 。Actual Tillerson statement on North Korea missile launch pic.twitter.com/OV2xstm0yI 。
