Goals
As the first generation to come of age in the 21st century, it is our task to develop and prepare to implement a progressive platform for the future. The Roosevelt Institution is a national network of student think tanks which connects students' ideas to the political process and serves as the incubator for tomorrow's leaders.
Students are already producing policy—through classes, research, extracurricular activities, and undergraduate and graduate theses—but their innovative ideas have yet to reach the national discourse. Our chapter collects students who already do relevant and ground-breaking work into issue-oriented policy centers. Centers combine discussion groups for individual work, project teams for collective efforts, and networking tools to give students access to on-campus and off-campus resources.
To give these centers the organizational support they need to connect a high quality student product to the policy process, our chapter has staff teams focused around events, public relations, finances, development, technology and publications. These teams work with the centers and the national organization to bring guests to campus, fund and organize activities, and deliver fellows' work to the media, politicians, policy makers, and other think tanks.
