ODU Day at the General Assembly in Richmond, VA
<p> Dear Monarchs, </p> <p> Are you concerned about growing tuition costs? Would you like to see minimized fee increases? Do you have concerns about safety, parking, or other issues on campus? </p> <p> The Old Dominion University Government Relations Student Advisory Board has organized "ODU Day" at the General Assembly in Richmond Virginia. This is an opportunity for any willing student to be a part of the legislative process for a day lobbying for ODU to receive more funding, while strengthening the relationship between the University and our state representatives. </p> <p> All participating students will meet for the bus on Thursday, January 23 rd, 2012 at 6:00am. Each student will receive complimentary breakfast and lunch, as well as free ODU gear such as a polo shirt. Participants will be given a talking points sheet, then will split into groups under several team leaders to go to a schedule of different appointments with state Senators and Delegates. The bus will return to ODU by 4:00pm. Any excuse from missed class will be handled by current Dean of Students Don Stansberry(<a href="mailto:dstansbe@odu.edu" target="_blank">dstansbe@odu.edu</a>). </p> <p> For more information please contact( Taniesha Simmons) ( tsimm020@odu.edu)</p> <p> Please RSVP asap, being that we have a limited number of seats that are expected to quickly fill.
