Leming said the Student Government Association, Panhellenic Association, College Democrats and College Republicans may participate in the campaign. SGA President Jonathan Busch said the SGA has worked with MaryPIRG in the past on several issues and will do so again. One of the goals of this SGA is to get students more politically involved. We've been doing that all year. Some students said they thought it was a good idea for groups to help students register to vote.
Voting is an important aspect of the American culture and the democratic process.
But others expressed the view that just registering students to vote could be futile. I think things like this and Rock the Vote are kind of dumb, because most people don't even look at the issues. It's pretty damn superficial. Leming said many college students think politicians won't listen to what college students have to say. It's a vicious cycle, and students need to realize we can make a difference.
