From Piscataway To D.C. - Livingston's Accomplishments Last Semester

From right here on campus in Piscataway to Washington D.C., students at Livingston's chapter made a big impact on issues that really matter to us! We registered over 600 voters and got hundreds out to the polls at Busch/Livingston to make sure politicians pay attention to us young people. As a part of our Higher Education campaign, three Livingston students went to D.C. to testify in front of the U.S. Department of Education to tell their stories of student debt and make recommendations on how to fix the problem! Our students also served at Elijah's Promise soup kitchen, collected hundreds of canned food items, and raised awareness of hunger and homelessness by hosting a "Faces of Homelessness" panel and a screening of "Invisible Children." Last but not least, our Campus Climate Challenge campaign highlighted solutions to global warming, educated students on the connection between global warming and storms like Hurricane Katrina (while raising money for victims!), and helped promote a policy that will bring more wind and solar power to Rutgers!  Check us out this spring semester, get involved, and make a difference!
