[/ul]Subjective:[ul]

[] Hook (if any): THIMUN is supposedly the largest international student conference in the world, so I guess that was a big part of it. I would say consistency with journalism overall. My counselor likes to talk about the “fit”. Also, my experiences in journalism began at Northwestern’s CTD program in 2001, and I emphasized that I want to continue there.
