I attended the University of
Houston as an English major my freshman and sophomore
years, in '88 and '89. UH is a great, but underrated school;
it has, for example, one of the best English departments in
the country. But the campus was always very
conservative when I was there. Too many b-school boys, I
guess.
Maybe Ralph Nader coming to speak there is a sign of a change
on campus. The Texas State Green Party state convention is
March 11 in Houston, and Nader will speak at that event as
well as at UH that evening.
If you're in Houston or nearby, you should make plans to hear
Ralph speak.
RALPH NADER addresses the public in Houston March 11, 7:00 pm,
U of H Cullen Performance Hall
Ralph Nader, corporate-buster, lifelong advocate for citizen
rights and a Green Party candidate for president, will discuss
his vision of democracy during a free public event at 7 p.m.
Saturday, March 11, at the University of Houston's Cullen
Performance Hall.
Come and ask Nader why is he putting his lifelong career and
credentials on the line, at this moment in our history, under
the Green Party banner. What is the person who created public
interest law hoping to accomplish with this bold and defiant
stance? Why the Green Party?
Nader will be joined by Alliance for Democracy founder Ronnie
Dugger and Green Party of Texas candidates for statewide
office: Doug Sandage for U.S. Senate, Gary Dugger and Charlie
Mauch for Texas Railroad Commission, and Ben Levy for Texas
Supreme Court.
