As part of a three-campus swing through Oregon, former Vermont Governor Howard Dean will urge University students to vote for democratic presidential candidate John Kerry in his speech in the EMU Amphitheater this afternoon.
Coming one day after the first presidential debate, Dean will also speak at Oregon State University and Portland State University about the high cost of college, the economy and the war on terrorism.
“I’m very excited to have somebody so big on the national level to come speak for us,” said Kevin Curtin, co-chairman of the College Democrats. “Having big speakers like Dean shows students they are important in the election and in helping Kerry win.”
Curtin said Dean will speak for between 30 and 40 minutes, starting at about 1:15 p.m.
