PROJECT OF THE MONTH

Politics, politics, politics. If you live and work in New Hampshire, some political work is bound to come your way! We had several "brushes with greatness" this political cycle.

At Saint Anselm College, we covered the Republican Debate. Saint Anselm students are presented with extraordinary opportunities to interact with those running for office as well as journalists covering the race. You can see some of the videos here. In the days leading up to the primary, we were traveled across the Granite State to cover appearances by Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul and Jon Huntsman.
