Leadership at the Virginia State Capitol
George Mason University is taking the non-profit higher education lobbying firm based in Richmond, Virginia21, and bringing its presence on-campus. A group of highly motivated, determined, and passionate political/higher ed junkies from Student Government were elected to sit on the Student Leadership Committee at Virginia21. This group of students will represent GMU at the Virginia State Capitol each month to discuss the reformation of higher education and hot topics such as: increasing financial aid, state support for GMU, student campaign ideas, and area delegate or state gubernatorial legislators/races and their influence on student academic economic policies. If you are interested in joining GMU’s Chapter of Virginia21, please contact lwaldron@gmu.edu for a great leadership opportunity!
