There is no reason why Drake, like Iowa State, could not get Elizabeth Dole or some other major political figure to speak to students and faculty about current issues. Nunn said he would like to have as many presidential speakers come to campus as possible in order to give students the opportunity to meet and speak with candidates. The organization is currently getting ready for next Saturday. The group will then attend the state convention. The convention, which is held locally, is a time for members to interact with one another and elect officers for the coming year.
Students can also take advantage of making contacts in politics.
Nunn, who works at the Iowa Capitol, said he is planning on having lunch with a presidential candidate about possibly coming to Drake. Socially, the organization has a variety of events planned for its members. Recently, the group had a St. Patrick's Day party. It also plans to participate in Street Painting. While Drake remains a fairly conservative campus, Nunn said he would like to see more student involvement.
