Roy Paul's speaking up...

Roy Paul sent a letter to the opinion section of the Times Herald, it's a great piece:

Students are the future of America. We are so concerned about the very real need to get a job and make money, it seems no one has the time to think of global affairs until a war breaks out or we are terrorized upon our own soil. Are we more concerned with what film to see on Friday night?

Politics isn't a cool topic to discuss at the cafeteria lunch table. Maybe, just maybe, it's because politics requires you to think and then think some more. In any event, young adults are not being challenged to get involved in the political process or to be aware of issues that in some way or another affect the way they live their lives.

Sending letters to the newspaper is a great way to spread ideas and get your voice heard. And it's a relatively easy thing to do. Thanks Roy!
