Due to low registrations, we have cancelled the College Issues Forum. We hope to offer this program during the 2010-2011 academic year.
Overview
The College Issues Forum (CIF) is a unique opportunity for Missouri college students to engage in debate over issues of state importance at a conference conducted by your peers. Participants from across the state will draft, present and debate a proposal, similar to a bill, on one state issue. During this two and a half day program, proposals will be heard and discussed in committees. Committees will then submit the top proposals to move on to a general assembly session for the entire to debate and discuss. CIF will bring together students from around the state for an opportunity to debate their proposals, interact with other passionate students, and develop as leaders. Participants are required to be enrolled at a two-year or four-year college or university in Missouri, or have permanent residence in Missouri, or be a past participant of Missouri YMCA Youth In Government.
