Kayla Auza, Eliana Cordova, Emma Okruhlik, Paulina Padilla and Adam Sucy all authored or sponsored great resolutions that passed in their committees. Kayla Auza was named Top Delegate for the Special Political Committee, fighting to resolve conflicts between Israel and Palestine and Amanda Heinzler was named Top Delegate for the World Health Organization, and argued for expanded development of sanitation resources in underdeveloped countries.
