regarding their interest in
and concern about a list of
10 topics. The top four,
which will be discussed at
the forum, are Roe vs. Wade
(choice), Iraq and
withdrawal of troops,
education and universal
health care. Representatives
of the Schreiner faculty
will speak on each issue.
A representative of each
party also will speak on
