U.S. Senator Arlen Specter will hold an open house town meeting. Although geared towards students all are invited. During the meeting, students are invited to discuss issues important to the region, the state, and the nation. He will address the audience briefly and devote the remainder of the hour to responding to questions and concerns.

“When you receive a notice that I’m going to be in your area for a town meeting, try to come out. My practice is to make a very short introductory statement of 5-7 minutes and then reserve the balance of time, or whatever time it takes, to answer questions. You don’t have to buy a ticket, you don’t have to make a contribution, all you have to do is come and listen a little and ask questions so that I can respond and have a better idea of what you’d like us to be doing here in Washington to represent you.”

Please bring your registration form to the reception desk of Kirby Sports Center.

Entry forms are available in Farinon on the bulletin board next to the ATM machine and at the reception desk in the Kirby Sports Center.
