Students represented Marshall well at Bush visit

More than 100 Marshall students were among the thousands of Tri-Staters who attended Texas Gov. George W. Bush's visit to Huntington on Monday.

Many of those students are members of the College Republicans, a political group on campus. The group also made signs to welcome Bush to West Virginia.

But there were about 150 students there, more than just the College Republicans.

We hear all the time about how people should exercise their right to vote, but we never see too many examples.

College students do have a strong voice in November's elections; all we have to do is use it.

So, we commend those students for having the interest in their future to go hear the person who may be the next leader of this country.

We just wish more would have gone.
