Pennsylvania Universities

The US onAir Network will be working with volunteers from Pennsylvania universities, colleges, and nonprofit organizations to oversee the curation and moderation of posts, aircasts (online discussions), and in person events for the Pennsylvania onAir Hub …  related to federal, state, and local elections and government.

Our first outreach will be to Penn State University partly because of its proximity to the state capital. We have identified many of Penn State University’s civic engagement, academic, internship and research programs related to making democracy and civic responsibility a focus of higher learning on their campus … for students, faculty, staff, and local community. This post, over time, will have similar information on other collaborating organizations in the state.

Contact ben.murphy@onair.cc for more information on how to involve your organization.
