My name is Terrence George, and I am president of the Republican Club of Brown University. I am writing to inform you of the great accomplishments our group has made this year and to ask for your support.
The Republican Club has been hard at work for over 120 years to ensure that Republican values are represented on Brown’s campus and in the community at large. This year has been no different, with Republican Club members working tirelessly to support conservative candidates, and ensure that the message of mainstream America is not lost in campus political debates.
This year, members have represented the Republican Club in writings in the Brown Daily Herald, ensured the survival of the Brown Spectator: Journal of Conservative and Libertarian Thought, revived the Ivy League Republican Caucus, volunteered for conservative candidates, been appointed to the Providence Republican Party City Committee and designed a full-credit class entitled “Modern Conservatism in America” taught by Federalist Society founder, Visiting Professor Steven Calabresi, along with other experts in conservative thought.
This last accomplishment required a herculean effort, of which we are most proud. Our course has been featured in the Providence Journal, the Boston Globe and the Los Angeles Times, to name a few. I have also spoken about the course on WHJJ’s Helen Glover Show, NPR’s On Point with Tom Ashbrook and at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C. Though these mediums I have been able to inform the nation about the great work we are doing at Brown.Despite these successes, our continued growth in this bluest of blue states will not be possible without the support of our friends and alumni.
If you find us worthy of your support, we ask that you either donate directly or come to enjoy beer, wine and heavy hors d’œuvre at our fundraiser in the historic Brown Faculty Club on April 14th from 6 to 8pm. An invitation to this event is attached, and though donations will be accepted at the door, we ask that you do RSVP in advance.
I truly hope you can attend our event, and I appreciate your timely response. Do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns or the names of others you believe should be invited to our event.
Respectfully,
Terrence Louis George

Obama Zombies: New Book by Ex-RI’er Jason Mattera
Jason has been very busy, working as a spokesman for the Young Americas Foundation, as well as most recently as a contributor to the blog, Hot Air. He’s kind of become known for ambushing hated public officials, and making them answer inconvenient questions. Yesterday, he confronted House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer by first “thanking him for all his work on health-care reform.” Then, after he made him feel comfortable, he went on to ambush him, asking him if it was a good idea to sic the IRS on Americans for not buying the right kind of health insurance…
