Democracy Shout Out is part of the Constitution Day events for 2010 at Texas Woman's University. Organized by the Department of History and Government, Democracy Shout Out is a chance to give students and other members of the community a safe forum to voice their views and opinions on a variety of issues that relate to the campus, the community and the country. Encourage your students to participate online or on-campus by responding to issues that matter to them. These forums will be available Monday, September 13 through Wednesday, September 15.
Participate Online
Students can go to http://democracyshoutout.wordpress.com/ to see the complete list of topics and to post their thoughts on any of those topics. The results of the feedback forums will be discussed on Thursday, September 16 from Noon - 1 p.m. at an on-campus event that will be broadcast online. The link to the webcast will be available on the website listed above. The results will be listed there as well.
