on campus. Young Democrats organized volunteers for local and
national candidates. College Libertarians hosted presidential
candidate Harry Browne. Young Republicans were at Dole and Kemp
rallies. CWRU Magazine sponsored a faculty roundtable
to discuss election issues. And everyone watched the Clinton-Dole
debate.
