The Oracle

I seem to have perfect timing. My last post was all about activism on campus. Sure enough last week we had Chelsea Clinton come to campaign for her mother and this week we have Nick Cannon and Kal Penn campaigning for Obama.  So what really is the strategic importance of OWU? This is something deeply discussed in my Senior Seminar class. With half of the student body from out of state, a large percentage of international students, and located in a conservative county, Delaware, why come out to good ole' Wesleyan? Why would the stars of Drum Line and Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle take time to talk about Obama? Being close to Columbus has its advantages.  But like I stated in my previous blog entry, I think the strong activism on campus definitely plays a role. Who knows, Will.I.AM. could be coming next.

Interesting blog! You didn't mention this! Dad told me about it. You are SO politically active! Dad must be so proud (and he can come live with you!).
