After 30 years on the UD campus, the College Democrats have finally gained full funding from the University. This is huge! Until last week, the allotment of funds to partisan groups was half that of other groups in an attempt to keep the University from favoritism. However, in a joint effort with the College Republicans and College Libertarians over the past semester, we have finally proven our case. This is a huge step forward for UD, as it now recognizes the great potential for a more civic-minded student body. What does this mean for the future of the Dems? Better programming, more trips and programs, bigger name speakers, and free food! :) So look for some free pizza at this week's meeting among all our smiles of success!
Don't forget to buy a College Dems T-Shirt. There's no better time to sport your pride in the party! Come next fall and the Presidential election, everyone will have one!
Other news:
- On Tuesday April 29th at 8:30 in the Scrounge, a left-wing comedian named Lee Camp will be performing. Apparently he's appeared on Law and Order: SVU, so that makes me really want to go...
- We are planning a trip down to DC on May 10. We hope to possibly tour the Capitol and maybe go to the Spy Museum. If you are interested, come to our meetings to learn more or e-mail Liz at elcoyne@udel.edu and put something about College Dems in the subject!
- The Annual College Democrats/College Republicans debate is happening May 6th. Look forward to more details!
By the way, I crack up every time I see this video below. Maybe you will too:

Awesome job guys! You and the members of the other side are to be commended. We were fighting for this since at least 2004!
