Messiah College is hosting this thing called the Compassion Forum. They invited Clinton, Obama, and McCain. Today, Obama officially confirmed his attendence, so now all that's left is for McCain to get his butt moving and confirm. Then it will be crazy. We are going to have the most absurd security on April 13, and the whole week leading up to it. Having ALL the main Presidential candidates all in the same room at the same time is gonna be hectic. Not a whole lot of students could get tickets, so I'll be watching it from the Student Union on campus. It's gonna be broadcast on a national news station too, apparently. Apparently Messiah can be pretty awesome sometimes! haha. According to an email sent to us all by President Phipps, "conversation topics will focus on compassion and social justice issues such as U.S. and global poverty; AIDS; climate change; Darfur; and human rights." Should be pretty interesting.
So, watch out for information on the Compassion Forum, and know that I'll be here right where the action is! woohoo!
