THE BOX OF DRAMATIC DELEGATES (BDD) Over the years, the BOMUN Conference has changed rooms. The first BOMUN Conference was held in the MPH (Multi Purpose Hall), after which it was held in the Sweat Room renamed the Debateatarium, and finally on again this prestigious forum was held in the MPH. This year the BOMUN Conference will be held in the Black Box we struggled for days if not weeks trying to figure out a better name for it. We refused to reuse the name the Debateatarium this name had been used and just didn't seem appropriate for our vivacious and keen delegates, nor was it appropriate with the actual use of the location. The black box is used for everything to do with the arts, mainly drama. Therefore we decided upon the name, The Box of Dramatic Delegates (BDD). Not only is this name appropriate for our esteemed delegates but, also apt considering what the "black box" is actually used for. The BOMUN Conferences at the American School of Bombay have improved over the years and, will continue to do so even though there is a change in the location not only, are our delegates well read on their countries they are also very good at adapting to change. The delegates are very excited to have the BOMUN 2013 Conference held in the BDD. This will only reinforce the fact that our delegates are the best for their job! Why was changing the room, in which the conference is held, necessary? This year the room in which the conference is held has been changed because of scheduling reasons. It also was important for the delegates to keep an open mind as to where they will be debating with each other. ‐Ruby
