The REAL Race Begins November 10th!
A conference to promote political activism at Boston University
The first non-partisan, statewide, student-run conference for change
One year before the election, college students across the northeast
will start the "The Race to 2008." Hosted by Boston University on
November 10th and 11th, this conference with college groups from
throughout the region will energize campuses to reach a common goal of
political activism for the benefit of colleges and their communities.
The two-day conference will transcend political parties by
incorporating issue-advocacy organizations and provide an opportunity
for students to network with elected officials, 2008 campaign
representatives, notable alumni, and respected professors from the
Massachusetts community.
It's time to begin setting the agenda for this critical election, and
"The Race to 2008" wants to unite hundreds of students from Boston
University and the Massachusetts community. We want people concerned
with bringing about national change by initiating the momentum at the
college level.
Attendees have the opportunity to learn methods and means to bring the
excitement back to their schools through speakers and workshops over
the weekend. We want to activate interest as well as educate others on
political, economic, social, and environmental issues central to this
election. We're encouraging everyone to get out the vote as well as get
out and vote.
