What
We Do
College Democrats enjoy
being a politically active student organization. Besides our regular
club meetings, we provide many events and opportunities for both our
members and non-members to become active and informed in government
and politics. Highlights of our successful events include:
-

Deputy Campaign Manager, Steve Hildebrand, to campus for a
public address
-
Acting as an Election Day Strategic
Location for the South Carolina Democratic Party and Barack
Obama’s Campaign for Change
-
Volunteering with Greenville Young
Democrats, including phone-banking and door-to-door canvassing
for local candidates
-
Sponsoring a week-long series of
film screenings relating to issues defining the 2008
presidential elections. The films viewed were An Inconvenient
Truth with Dr. Weston Dripps, Street Fight with Dr. Glen Halva-Neubauer,
Sick Around the World with Dr. Carmela Epright, and No End in
Sight with Dr. Mike Bressler.
