College Republicans at SHU
The College Republicans are now established here at Seton Hill, and we got a huge turnout for members at the Club Fair! Thanks to anyone who signed up there. We have over forty members! But in case you didn't make it to the club fair, it's okay, you can still join. Just e-mail me (littlemike@thecellardwellers.com) or attend any of our meetings and I will sign you up!
The first meeting is Thursday, Sept 23rd at 7:30PM in Admin 405. Anyone is welcomed to attend (well, aside from unruly protesters) and the meeting shouldn't be longer than an hour.
I would invite anyone that has conservative ideals or that supports our President to attend.

Dan Rather recently got into trouble for speaking at a Democractic fund-raiser. He said that he accepted the invitation to speak without asking whether the event was political. Oops!

By speaking at a Democratic party event, at the very least he gave the appearance of a conflict of interest.
Rather's career is already secure, but his speech gives ammunition to those who want to paint him as a liberal whose bias interferes with the quality of his reporting.
All the same, I'd like to think that no editor would be so shallow as to deny a job to somebody -- anybody -- simply because they joined a college club.
Just as a hypothetical question--
As a journalist, could one be rejected for a job because of an affiliation with a club like this?
