S.O.S. = students on service (part 3)

Did you watch the debates last night and wonder, "What does any of this mean for someone my age?" Then the politically engaged students at Columbia U might be able to help answer that. Today's post, which wraps up our three-part series, features interviews with the political chair of the Black Student Association and one of the leaders from the College Republicans.

Just a reminder -- the views expressed here don't necessarily reflect the views of the Social Citizens bloggers or the Case Foundation. This presentation simply highlights how students view the intersection of service and politics, and how Millennials overall can play a part.

Ok, CYA moment is over. :) On with the interviews! And thanks for checking out all these terrific examples of students in action.
