College Republicans aim to identify all conservative voices on campus
The University group College Republicans is evolving to become the voice of all conservatives on campus.
With new leadership and a changing party, the University’s College Republicans chapter is shifting to accommodate all conservatives on campus, according to new president Arielle Sutton, agricultural business junior.
Sutton said this semester, the group is engaging in political campaigns, helping local candidates with their upcoming elections and planning a baseball tailgate.
She said the social event will be open to anyone on campus wanting to learn about the Republican Party.
Agricultural business sophomore and ambassador and Greek affairs chair Destin Sensky said he is looking forward to having public service leaders speak to the group now that election season is over.
Sutton said as the party faces reform and changes after election losses in the fall, the college group is looking to change what people typically think about Republicans.
“Between Bobby Jindal and Marco Rubio, who are not your typical Caucasian male, they are changing the face of the party,” Sutton said.
“We want to engage a lot of people who are at the college level and are looking to establish themselves and look toward the future,” Sutton said. “We are not there to throw ourselves at people – just to make ourselves known, establish our presence and let people come if they’d like to.”
