Each one of us has the power to change the world through media activism. Tonight, we will show you what we have done to make a difference in the world around us. Through research, surveys, videos and blogs, we have created FIVE campaigns dealing with real issues that effect us all. Please join us in taking a stand against ignorance and apathy.

Students will present the following campaigns:

Honk If You’re a Citizen!
No Health Care! No Vote!
Give a Hoot. Don't Shoot!
Education… Whose Problem Is It?
