DOUGLAS TIETZ

Bio:

of St. Joseph, MI, attends the University of Michigan. As a history major, his experience with political correctness and liberal bias on campus has prompted him to pursue his interest in politics. He organized a conference featuring nationally known conservative speakers, reaching out to non-conservative organizations to invite them to participate. He also organized a conservative student party to challenge the dominant student government leadership; and he and two other members were elected to the Michigan Student Assembly. Doug serves as executive director of Michigan Young Americans for Freedom and, in the 2000 campaign, as co-chairman of Students for Bush, hosted 15 voter registration and information tables campus-wide and participated in five debates with Students for Gore leaders. He is a graduate of the Youth Leadership School of the Leadership Institute. This fall he is on sabbatical to serve as Youth Coordinator for Mark Earley's campaign for Governor of Virginia.
