Students from the Political Science Club, College Democrats and College Republicans jointly hosted a Presidential Debate Watch on campus Sept. 10. More than 100 students - republicans, democrats and independents - attended the event.
Students were encouraged to vote for the candidate of their choice. It was the vote - or expression of their voice - that was emphasized at the event. The event was marked by an incredible sense of congeniality, community and respect, even though political opinions of those attending differed.
Reporters from WNEP-TV and the Scranton Times-Tribune covered the Debate Watch and interviewed students in attendance, including officers of the University clubs hosting the event.
