The Practicum on Political Campaigns and Elections class was so grateful to have these candidates come speak! This class is one of the requirements in the new CGAP concentration!

The candidates addressed these questions: What motivated you to become involved in politics? What were the ...formal and informal steps you took to advance your political career? What is it like to be a candidate? What is your campaign’s rationale and slogan? What activities will you personally participate in during the campaign?

With the understanding their presentation will help the students learn about campaigns, and it will assist them in developing their candidate’s image, slogan, and role in the campaign. Just as important, it should help the students find a pathway into politics and land a position on a campaign.

THANK YOU CANDIDATES!!!!
