Lewis-Clark State College political science professors Kylee Britzman and Leif Hoffmann will conduct a free “Consent of the Governed: Student Democracy Day” event for students age 12 and older on July 27th.
The civics event runs 8:45 a.m.-3:30 p.m. and includes activities, tours, and discussions led by Lewiston Mayor Dan Johnson and Lewiston Tribune editor and publisher Nathan Alford.
Britzman and Hoffmann are holding the event to provide students an opportunity to learn more about how government and society operate at the local level. The event also allows students to get a daily look at the democratic process, learn about studying those topics in college, and gain knowledge about the history of the Lewis-Clark Valley.
Students interested are asked to register by 5 p.m. on July 25th by emailing either Britzman at kjbritzman@lcsc.edu or Hoffmann at lshoffmann@lcsc.edu. Those students who attend are also asked to bring a sack lunch.
