RESULTS
Calling all activists
RESULTS, a non-profit organization, will come to campus today to teach students how to become more effective citizen activists. The organization's goal is to create political will to end hunger and poverty in the U.S. and abroad. Southfield junior Portia McIntosh is student coordinator for Advocacy Central and works to get students involved. "RESULTS doesn't deal with candidates. They have certain issues that they are concerned with like poverty, HIV and education for all," she said. The group is looking for students to get involved and who can start a group at Central Michigan University. There will be a meeting at 7 p.m. today in the Bovee University Center Maroon, Gold and Chippewa rooms.
