Note from Jeff Hubbard - LI rep for Wicsonsin and Chicago
Hello Wisconsin! (and Chicago!)
If you are reading this, then you already know - I have been sent on a rescue mission to save conservative college students trapped behind liberal (welfare) lines. It won't be easy, but with threats of: nationalized health care, government bailouts and global warming hysteria, conservatives are starting to mobilize on college campuses. My job is to facilitate that success in the greater Chicago area and within the state of Wisconsin.
Many students have already been stepping up to the challenge. In Wisconsin, a Young Americans for Liberty is forming at UW - Madison and they hope to publish a conservative-libertarian newspaper by winter break. At DePaul Law School, a group of students are founding a new organization to create awareness about eminent domain and other Constitutional violations. They are known as, "Lawyers of Liberty."
This fall, do what your peers are doing - push back against the tidal wave of socialism that is crashing down on your campus. You and I will make a difference, let's start today. If you are a student in Illinois or Wisconsin, tell me how I can help you fight the tyrannies of big government.

The Leadership Institute (LI) and, in-turn, CampusReform.org (CR) claims to be "a non-partisan educational organization" (see the bottom of every page on this website). So, if we assume that partisan politics does not motivate LI/CR, what does? In other words, it appears the "rescue mission to save conservative college students trapped behind liberal (welfare) lines" that is so breathlessly and heroically professed by Mr. Hubbard (and presumably urged by LI/CR) is assumed as a predicate for activism and reformation, rather than demonstrated by any even vaguely objective means.
LI/CR's Mission Statement claims, in part, that it is: "designed to provide conservative activists with the resources, networking capabilities, and skills they need to revolutionize the struggle against leftist bias and abuse on college campuses." As an "educational organization," where is LI/CR's own study of its assumed thesis that universities and colleges have as significant, "leftist bias and abuse?" If other studies or research are the basis for LI/CR's mission, shouldn't those studies be scrutinized as to their veracity and be cited and available for everyone to review and comment on?
Simply asserting "leftist bias and abuse" exists on today's campuses, without first doing a competent and rigorous examination of the issue, is (or should be) an insult to the students LI/CR is attempting to recruit. On the other hand, if LI/CR is actually a partisan project simply shilling for one political ideology over another, it should admit it and refrain from calling itself a "non-partisan educational organization."
