Hofstra Student Jenna Wyatt Volunteers at 2016 Presidential Debate

2016 Oct 24

Jenna Wyatt of Hempstead, NY served as a Commission on Presidential Debates Ticket Office volunteer during the first presidential debate between candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump at Hofstra University on Sept. 26, 2016. Along with a month-long series of panels discussions, lectures and performances on important election issues, the volunteer opportunity provided a once-in-a-lifetime educational experience that inspired students to engage in the democratic process and embrace their responsibility as citizens and voters. Hofstra University is the only institution in the nation to host three consecutive presidential debates, and its 2016 debate was the most widely watched in American history.
