Campus Progress Is Hitting the Road!

Campus Progress Southern Tour ‘06

5 days. 9 schools. 1409 miles. In order to build a stronger progressive movement, we believe that it’s important to reach out to students on the ground in every area of the country.So the Campus Progress team is hitting the road – this semester and every semester. From Monday, October 30th to Friday, November 3rd, Campus Progress Director David Halperin and Outreach and Organizing Associate Manager Ramya Raghavan will be driving from campus to campus for a southern road trip!

At each school, they’ll be speaking with students about organizing around progressive issues, the future of the movement, and how Campus Progress can better serve students. And don’t worry if your school isn’t a scheduled stop—David and Ramya will be live-blogging the whole journey!
