Abstract: We study a family of semiample divisors on the moduli space $$ that come from the theory of conformal blocks for the Lie algebra $s{l}_n$ and level 1. The divisors we study are invariant under the action of $S_n$ on $$. We compute their classes and prove that they generate extremal rays in the cone of symmetric nef divisors on $$. In particular, these divisors define birational contractions of $$, which we show factor through reduction morphisms to moduli spaces of weighted pointed curves defined by Hassett.
