Review of Campaigning For Credit
Interesting piece, I never campaigned for credit in my school I don't even think I knew there was such a thing. Your production on thins piece was good and is something I could definitely hear on NPR. Hopefully if students hear this they'll be more interested in the political process and what effects politicians have on their lives if not that then the school credit is a great incentive.
