Feedback
Delegates may provide feedback to the Secretariat through any of these three means: in-room feedback with the Under-Secretaries-General (or another Secretariat member), head delegate feedback sessions, and the BarMUN XVIII anonymous feedback form.
In-room feedback will occur periodically throughout the conference, specifically on Friday and Saturday.
Head delegates may attend their dedicated feedback sessions on Thursday and Friday evening. The Secretary-General, Director-General, Director of Delegate Affairs, and Chief of Staff will all be present at these sessions.
The Anonymous Feedback Form may be submitted at any time, by any delegate, to privately raise an issue in their committee or the conference at large. This form will be monitored throughout the duration of the conference, and the Secretariat will address the issues in due course.
Decorum Policies
COVID-19: BarMUN XVIII follows all current Massachusetts Commonwealth policies regarding COVID-19. Masks are optional in all committee rooms, and delegates who choose to wear one may do so. Please respect your fellow delegates’ decisions regarding their own masking preferences. COVID tests will not be required to check in for BarMUN XVIII. If you begin showing symptoms of COVID-19, get tested immediately and inform the Director of Delegate Affairs. You should self-isolate between the time that you get tested and the time you receive your result.
Dress Code: Western Business Attire will be the expected dress code for delegates and staff for all committee sessions, including the Sunday session. Delegates from military academies may wear proper uniforms as they deem appropriate.
Attendance: Delegates must attend all committee sessions in order to be considered for awards.
Please review the BarMUN XVIII Delegate Code of Conduct at the top of the page for additional policies, including those regarding academic dishonesty / plagiarism, illicit substances, et cetera.
Technology Policy
For all committees:
Delegates should limit the use of cell phones for any kind of communication, including calls and texts, while their committee is in session. If an emergency arises, the delegate should leave the room quietly to respond to the message.
All BarMUN communication platforms are monitored by your committee’s staff and members of the BarMUN XVIII Secretariat. Inappropriate content found by a dais or Secretariat member, either independently or after being notified by a delegate, will be promptly investigated. If the contents of the message or file warrant it — and at the sole discretion of the BarMUN XVIII Secretariat — the delegate may be warned or ejected from committee entirely without being considered for awards. Serious violations may result in the offending delegate’s entire delegation being disqualified.
For the Double-Delegate General Assembly (ECOFIN):
All draft resolutions and working papers will be written digitally and should be sent to the dais via email.
In the front room, technology is only permitted during unmoderated caucuses and during Presentation/Q&A periods, except in extreme cases as designated by the committee chair(s).
In the back room, technology is permitted at any time.
For Assembly Committees:
All draft resolutions and working papers will be written digitally and should be sent to the dais via email.
