Subject: Politics Live: CA Ballot Propositions at Butte College
Dear Current and Newly Elected Butte County Board of Supervisors,
As a joint effort between the Department of Political Science, Department of Communication Studies, and
Butte College Student Life we invite you to join us at the 2018 Butte College Politics Live Forum: California
Election Edition. The 2018 Politics Live Forum will focus on the California Ballot Initiatives.
The event will take place on Oct 18th from 2-3:30pm in the Campus Center Lounge. Here, students will display
their research on topics in an interactive poster session. The topics are selected by students from within the
framework of this year's California Ballot Propositions. Audience members consist of other students, as well
as campus and community members.
Through this forum, our diverse communities will have the opportunity to share their unique perspective, be
heard, as well as to learn about one another. Our goal is to improve political participation in our local
community through a practice of sharing important information and engaging in conversations on contentious
issues. Together we will maintain a respectful discourse, and positively encourage all in this opportunity to
become informed about election issues.
While this forum is independent from any existing local organization, many groups and volunteers from
different perspectives and backgrounds across the community are helping extend this invitation. Please Join
Us!
If you are able to attend, please reply to this email. We will contact you with more information about the
event specifics, as well as logistics for navigating campus.
Thank you for your consideration,
Shannon Troxel (Communication Studies), Kathy Peterson (Associated Student Representative) and Cynthia
Bynoe (Political Science)
