Students at tiny Lafayette College, one of the nation’s premier liberal arts colleges in Easton, PA, hosted a health reform phone booth as part of the nationwide push for 100,000 calls in support of the President’s health insurance reform plan. Students took time between classes to call their members of Congress. Senior class volunteers shared their exasperation over their current predicament as most of the students, even at a great school like Lafayette, are faced with losing their health care coverage at the end of the year because they have not been able to secure employment. Students across the state are organizing for health reform. A dedicated group of students at Allegheny College set up an information table and stormed the dining hall during the lunch hour. Everyone is upbeat and energized about health care reform here!
