The Class of 1971 Student Conference on United States Affairs (SCUSA) has been held annually since 1960. The conference is a mix of speeches and panels featuring high-ranking military and civilian leaders, as well as discussion roundtables and social events. Past speakers have included Secretary Henry Kissinger, Secretary Madeleine Albright, Ambassador Susan Rice, and General Paul Nakasone. At their discussion sessions, delegates will get the opportunity to react to the contents of speeches, to more personally meet other delegates, and to guide the conversation by voicing their opinion on the many subtopics related to the conference theme. Around 1-3 international delegates will be assigned to each roundtable, along with student delegate from civilian and military institutions from around the United States.
One To World’s delegation plays a special role in this prestigious foreign affairs conference by adding a critical international perspective to the student deliberations on U.S. foreign policy. As international student participants, One To World delegates enrich the conference with their various national and cultural perspectives, as well as their academic experience. In turn, American undergraduate conference participants and Cadets at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point share their cultural, political, and educational views with One To World’s delegates in an exciting academic and social setting.
The SCUSA fee is $300. This fee covers the registration fee, round-trip transportation from NYC, accommodations, and meals. Delegates are responsible for any spending money they may require for souvenirs, snacks or other items. NOTE: Possible sponsorships are available.
