Getting The Ball Rolling

This weekend the Student Freedom Project made its maiden voyage into the college community.  With 90 new members and rising, the Student Freedom Project is getting down and dirty with college students and bringing the next generation into the political arena. With tuition on the rise and unemployment climbing, it's not hard to get college students thinking about their future. Our table at the 'All Campus Picnic' at Washington State University was referred  to by some students as the best table at the event. The water pong and Student Freedom Project's Jones Sodas kept us constantly bombarded by clamoring freshmen.

The Lentil Festival put the Student Freedom Project front and center with the community of Pullman. The exposure gave us the opportunity to talk with community members and learn more about communities and their concerns regarding the state of our economy and how it will effect our college student once they venture off into the real world. The community validated our efforts, in getting the college students involved in politics. There is much traveling ahead of us, and more people and groups to meet.  All that can be said, is waves are being made with Washington college students and Washington State University and is a preview of what's to come.
