MCS SCONA 71
MSC SCONA hosts an annual collegiate conference that connects delegates from universities across the nation and the world. Each year, MSC SCONA discusses a different topic of national importance, giving delegates the chance to interact with the nation’s highest academic scholars, government officials, and well-known public figures. Delegates also participate in the debate through facilitated roundtables culminating in a policy paper competition. But, MSC SCONA is much more than a conference. For more than 70 years, MSC SCONA has brought students together, not just to discuss the important issues of our time, but also to form meaningful relationships with other students and future national leaders along the way. MSC SCONA is more than a conference; it is an experience of a lifetime.
