A team of Santa Fe College Students—Natalie Davis, Liam Frank, Jordan Morang, Syed Muhammad Omar, Lorin Rudin-Rush, and Christopher Smoot-—performed superbly at the 45th Annual Model U.S. Senate at Stetson University.
Omar (pictured) earned a “Best Senator” award for his outstanding portrayal of Senator Tom Cotton, and Liam and Omar won awards as members of the “Best Committee.” The Model Senate is a mock Senate where students introduce and work on legislation in committees, speak on the Senate floor, participate in caucus meetings, and learn some of the realities of working in the U.S. Congress. The group was coached by faculty members Alan Beck and Dustin Fridkin.
