  • Dear Arthur,

    Initial reaction to our new newsletter format and content has been very positive. We appreciate your feedback and welcome any and all suggestions for further improvement. We are committed to giving you as much information relevant to global issues and our Model U.N. program as possible.

    In addition to reading our newsletters, you may also want to visit our web site by clicking here. We have a good deal of current information, and during this summer we will be working on building up our archives from previous years.

    We need folks to preview the new Gateway M.U.N. video...

    What started out as a small account of our Conference on the U.N. Charter last February has turned into a seven-minute video of the entire Gateway Model U.N. program. We think that this will be extremely helpful to students and teachers alike in the Fall. We now have a final draft of the piece; all that is missing is some valuable critiquing by interested viewers.

    We are planning to have two showings of the video for students, teachers, and others. We want your honest feedback so that we can make any necessary changes prior to the Fall.

    The two viewings will be at Crossroads School, 500 DeBaliviere, in St. Louis click here map The dates and times are:

    This Friday, June 14, 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM
    This Saturday, June 15, 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM

    If you are interested in attending, we would appreciate it if you call or E-Mail us in advance. However, this is not necessary.

    Tour of G.M. Plant will be first Summer Activity of 2002
    During the summer months, we try to provide a series of special field trips that are "somewhat educational" and also fun. The first one that we will have this year is a tour of the General Motors plant in Wentzville, Missouri (St. Charles County). The tour will be on Tuesday, June 25, from 9:00 AM - 10:15 AM.

    Because so many interested students and teachers live throughout the St. Louis metropolitan area, we will have two pick-up and return points for the bus to take us to the plant. The first will be at Crossroads School, 500 DeBaliviere, in St. Louis click here for map

    The second will be at the St. Louis County Library, 1640 So. Lindbergh (63131) -- east side of Lindbergh, just south of Clayton Road. click here for map


    Pick-up at Crossroads will be at 7:45 AM; at the County Library at 8:10 AM. Return to the Library will be by 11:30 AM and to Crossroads by 12:00 Noon.

    During the tour, we will be on a tram and travel about the plant to see how G.M. is using modern technology in the auto industry. There will be time for questions and answers. If you are interested in going, please E- Mail us and let us know at which of the two pick-up spots we should expect you.
