Student/Faculty Pizza Discussion Supper: "Why Vote for George Bush? Why Vote for John Kerry? Truth, Lies, and Politics."

This is a small-group program and requires participants to sign up in advance. Participants must be IU undergraduates and must sign up using the established procedures. For complete sign-up procedures, click here.

Have you been inundated with ads from Bush, Kerry, and independent groups? What did you learn from those ads about the issues? If you are from a "shoe-in" state, you may have seen few, if any, ads. Have the media given you the information you need to make a choice? Who is responsible for making certain you get the truth . . . in context? In this program, Professor Amy Reynolds of the IU School of Journalism, political science professor Michael Ensley, and Jim Parham, vice president of the marketing agency Hirons & Company, among others, will join us to take a look at this year's presidential campaign, the ads and the coverage, and will challenge you to identify the truly relevant issues and to discuss the facts that are essential to casting your vote on November 2nd.
