A one-day crash course that explores progressive student leadership from an insider�s perspective, the Conference will feature a powerful schedule of skill-building workshops; effective advocacy and media training seminars; and panels and forums led by some of the top progressive newsmakers we�ve been talking about at CampusProgress.org.
Confirmed speakers so far include: Thomas Frank, bestselling author of �What�s The Matter With Kansas?�; Dee Dee Myers, White House Press Secretary to President Clinton and consultant to NBC�s �The West Wing�; Adonal Foyle, starting center, NBA Golden State Warriors, and founder, Democracy Matters; Carol Browner, Administrator, Environmental Protection Agency, under President Clinton; John Passacantando, executive director, Greenpeace US; Susan Rice, Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, Clinton Administration; Donna Brazile, political strategist.
This is a chance for progressive students to connect and network with other students, top political leaders, policy experts, and journalists from all over the country. It�s an opportunity to directly engage with Campus Progress by sharing your stories, your campus strategies, and your views. It�s a time for you to speak up about the issues that matter most to you.
