Students and community members can be among the first in the nation to see C-SPAN’s new Campaign 2008 Bus as part of the “Road to the White House” tour. The 45‐foot long mobile production studio makes a stop at the Student Union Building Monday, April 16. The bus will be parked near the southeast entrance to the SUB from 1 to 4 p.m. The event is free and open to the public.

C‐SPAN Campaign 2008 Bus 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.

“With early interest in presidential politics growing we’re excited to get on the road now with the brand new Campaign 2008 Bus,” said Stephanie Green, marketing rep for the network. “As the political network of record, we’re excited to offer a variety of resources for educators, students, first‐time voters and the general public as part of our extensive coverage of the 2008 presidential elections.”

C-SPAN’s renowned political program marks its 20^th year on the air next year.
