BSG also plans to make a special shuttle available on election day to take students directly to and from the polls in Rochester. Other events are still in the early stages of planning. The Political Science Club has helped with some of the events. Both Midkiff and Traino strongly believe that students should vote. For students who are not well-informed with the presidential candidates' platforms, there are many sources available, according to Traino.
Web sites are available for each party and platforms are included.
Traino also compiled a sheet that summarizes the aspects of the candidates platforms that he thought would be of interest to students. These sheets are available in the BSG office. For more information about BSG sponsored events related to the election, contact the BSG office at 395-2550. This past Wednesday, information about doing a semester overseas was available in the Seymour College Union Fireside Lounge at the SUNY Brockport Study Abroad Fair. Representatives provided students with information about the many programs offered at colleges and universities in other countries.
