Last year we got Paul Sarbanes and Kathleen Cleaver some broad who used to be a bigshot in the Black Panthers.

1)  What's the best way to convince the college to pick a libertarian speaker?

2)  About how much would it take to get a big name speaker such as Walter Williams or Ron Paul?

It would, in my opinion, require a sizable petition. With colleges, I suppose the best way to go about it is by petitioning for an invitation of a wide variety of philosophies to state their case. That way they won't be seen as having a bias.

Hi Ramone!  I'd love to help you get a libertarian speaker on your campus.  Please send me an e-mail at dshahar [at] fee [dot] org, and we can talk about how to make it happen.
