AU College Democrats and College Republicans joined together to speak their minds for MTV's satellite station, MTV University, yesterday on the Quad.
A VJ asked 25 to 30 people in the crowd about their feelings on the platforms of their favorite candidates, giving the students the opportunity to shout out slogans and sound bites. Students were also invited to participate in a countdown of music videos.
"It was interesting to see the behind-the-scenes of how they do the video countdown, especially leading with the political aspect of it and getting young people involved," College Republican President Ibbie Hedrick said. "[But] it didn't seem like the MTV crew knew anything about politics and that was disappointing"
