GUBERNATORIAL DEBATE IN S.R. 10/12

After some months of negotiating with the gubernatorial candidates as well as media, we are pleased to announce that the California Gubernatorial Debate will be held on Tuesday, October 12, 6:30 p.m. in Angelico Hall on our campus. Veteran NBC broadcaster and author Tom Brokaw will serve as the moderator for the debate between Republican candidate Meg Whitman and Democratic candidate Jerry Brown. The debate will air live at 6:30 pm on the California NBC stations including NBC Bay Area, KNBC Los Angeles, KNSD San Diego, KCRA Sacramento and KSBW in Salinas/Monterey and will be offered to other California NBC stations. C-SPAN and Telemundo will also air the broadcast. The announcement today has already generated media attention throughout the country; that momentum should continue as we get closer to the October date. Below are links to some of the coverage about Dominican's presentation of the debate in today's media. This is a significant debate and election and our involvement underscores our presence within the higher education landscape.http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2010/08/04/BA8N1EOB9E.DTLhttp://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2010/08/04/4813210-the-midterms-breaking-down-the-ks-mi-and-mo-resultshttp://www.mercurynews.com/news/ci_15676367?source=rsshttp://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/politics/Tom-Brokaw-to-Host-Calif-Gubernatorial-Debate-99939259.html
