Yesterday I got to go down to Indianapolis with 8 of my other classmates to help promote SSACI. SSACI is Indiana's federal funding of students and they award a lot of money to help students attend college. As a student who gets funding from SSACI I was asked to come down and help lobby in the Indiana State House. It was a great experience and I was even able to tour the State house and write letters to my senator and state representative. I had a lot of fun and it was nice to see how politics around me actually work. I hope that the voices of the many students that went down to Indy are heard and that Indiana continues to support SSACI and help students with their higher education goals.
