Columnist Joe Laliberte, a senior, urges students to respond to President Barack Obama’s call to service.
“Obama’s inauguration marked a departure of the politics of our parents’ generation. The types of politics that drove wedges rather than solved problems have no place in the current state of our union. What we need are not just people who talk about answers, but people with the courage to actually stand up and answer a calling for service and responsibility to our country.”
