Dear Staff and Faculty for Peace & Justice:
Please spread the word widely, and forward this email on to your students,
as it will be a great opportunity for them to be engaged in an aspect of th
e presidential race that is not being covered in the media. I have been the
local contact for Nader in Eau Claire for years, and Ralph personally cons
iders the people of the Chippewa Valley a high priority in receiving his me
ssage of what active citizenship means. Ralph was last here as a candidate
in 2004, and 2002 for the Forums Series.
Hope you can make it,
Jeremy Gragert
