Hello everyone!

Come join ADP and IPD in a deliberative discussion where we will think about where we stood on the issues relating to campus and the larger political scale at the beginning of the academic year and see how our views have changed over the course of this year.

We will be having Denise Yost, the director of the Center for Transformational Learning and Leadership as our special keynote speaker.

There will also be a second event, an engage-in on April 13th to compliment that discussion taking place during this event.

We hope you are enjoying the break, Cougs. While you catch up on Netflix, take a second to RSVP to the annual Coug Day at the Capitol event in Olympia. It's an amazing way to glimpse our state government in action, and have a chance to lobby for higher education!

Join us at Coug Day at the Capitol if you are interested in lobbying for higher education in our States legislature.  You will have an ability to meet with legislators and share student concerns with them. You will also have an opportunity to attend a gala and increase your civic engagement. Overnig...

I thought about bringing a question to the election viewing party, but I like this better. A little calm is needed today.
