Ad–Hoc Committee of the Secretary–General



"It's a great huge game of chess that's being played—all over the world—if this is the world at all, you know."

The Ad–Hoc of the Secretary–General is a premier committee of high–caliber debate at UCBMUN XXIX. The committee's topic itself will remain hidden and will be announced shortly before the conference begins!





Harsh Kumbhat

Chair

Hello fellow LARP enthusiasts! Welcome to SADHOC!

I'm your chair, Harsh. I'm a senior at UC Berkeley studying Film with a minor in Creative Writing. I'm originally from Kolkata, India, and have been competing at and staffing Model UN conferences for almost 9 years now (idk why either). Outside of Model UN, I spend my time devouring books, watching an ungodly amount of movies, and occasionally touching grass.

Last year, I had the distinct honor of serving as Secretary General for the 28th edition of UCBMUN, alongside my best friend and Director General, Sehr Ali Dada (SAD). This year, we return with SADHOC, where we will discuss [redacted]. Lol jk, fr this time, the topic is [redacted]. Crazy idea, right? Yeah, we're wild like that.

Sehr and I are so so excited to welcome you back to San Francisco for our final year as part of UCBMUN. Hints for the committee will be released in February 2025, but please feel free to reach out to us should you have any questions. We cannot wait for you to see what we have in store for you!

Best,
Harsh Kumbhat
Ad–Hoc Committee of the Secretary–General


Sehr Ali Dada

Crisis Director

Hello, hello, hello!

I am Sehr Ali Dada and welcome to SADHOC, my somewhat namesake (Sehr Ali Dada-Hoc, get it?)

As a fourth-year student at Cal, studying Political Science and Comparative Literature, and I've been a part of UCBMUN since my freshman fall. Having served as the Director General of UCBMUN XXVIII and previously as the Chief of Staff, I assure you that you’re in capable hands. My journey with UCBMUN has been nothing short of incredible, and I'm excited to share this passion with you alongside my best friend and former Secretary General, Harsh!

This Ad Hoc will challenge you, surprise you, and hopefully entertain you with every twist and turn—and believe me, there will be many. We will provide no hints until February 2025, so keep your eyes and ears peeled around then, and we hope to provide a truly Ad-Hoc experience to all our delegates. I am super excited to see y’all’s creativity shine as we engage in debate and who knows what else (not you, lol)!

Super stoked to see you at the Intercontinental in San Francisco for a unique, one-of-a-kind, and mind-boggling experience!

Best,
Sehr Ali Dada
Ad–Hoc Committee of the Secretary–General
