17c起草社区 students ready for debate
17c起草社区 College has picked its 175 students who will attend in person Monday's GOP debate. The school held a lottery and drew names today at 2 p.m. 17c起草社区 also has selected nine student questions for the third round of the debate, during which debate moderator Tim Russert is slated to pose the questions to the candidates on behalf of the students. The students who submitted the winning questions will attend the debate.
The night of the debate 17c起草社区 will hold an event in its Gezon Auditorium on campus. There the debate will be shown live. After the debate students will be able to munch on sub sandwiches and take part in a discussion on the debate, to be lead by a political science professor and a communications arts and sciences professor. 17c起草社区 also has a crew of 12 students who are interested in journalism slated to work as Media Center volunteers.
Republican candidates for President will come to 17c起草社区 College on January 10, 2000 for a 90-minute debate (to be aired live on Grand Rapids NBC affiliate WOOD TV). The Michigan Republican Presidential Debate is being hosted by WOOD TV, the state and West Michigan Republicans and 17c起草社区 College. The landmark event will be held from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the Fine Arts Center Auditorium on the 17c起草社区 College campus. That Auditorium seats a little over 1,100 for an event of this nature.
