That's right! Some of you probably thought you'd never read something like this coming to a college in NYC, but on April 21st, the College Republicans will be publishing the Liberty Forum- Fordham's first conservative magazine. I’m really excited for its publication for two reasons: firstly, it will enhance political discourse on this campus and get a conservative message out to our fellow students and secondly, it represents how far along the College Republicans have come this year.
Last year the CR’s turned out MAYBE six people to a meeting, had very few if any events and basically was a defunct club. This year though we average 40 members at meetings, are planning on multiple speakers a semester for next year, go on trips, debate the College Dems (whose leaders are legit awesome people), have fundraisers for the troops and a lot of other stuff. I couldn’t do it without the help of the CR exec board though so thanks guys!
But back to the Liberty Forum. Get ready to read whether Fordham has a liberal bias in the classroom, how free we really are on campus as far as speech is concerned, about the future of Cuba now that Fidel has officially handed over power (a guest column by Humberto Fontova) and about those annoying hate free zone signs next to people’s dorm doors.
We’ll be passing copies out by hand all over campus so be sure to pick one up.
