C-SPAN’s “Road to the White House” Bus Tour Hits Campaign Trail to Track Action in 2008 Presidential Election

WASHINGTON (March 26, 2008) – Evergreen State College students will join the thousands who have toured C-SPAN’s Campaign 2008 Bus as part of the “Road to the White House” tour, when the bus stops at Evergreen State College on Thursday, April 3 from 1:30pm-3:00pm.

The 45-foot mobile production studio is on the campaign trail to promote and enhance C-SPAN’s comprehensive political coverage, traveling to major political events such as candidate debates and speeches in early primary states, touring state capitols, and also conducting educational programs for teachers and students. Since its January 2007 launch, the bus has been to 32 state capitals and 95 schools, where 278 elected officials, 2,750 teachers and 21,650 students have been on board.

The Olympia event, in partnership with Comcast, is part of the Bus’s inaugural “Road to the White House” tour, named after C-SPAN’s renowned political program that marks its 20th year on the air in 2008.

**Bus will be open to all students, faculty & local media. It will be at the bus loop.**
