YAL National is back on the road again after taking a break for Easter. Last weekend’s convention was in Auburn, Alabama, with 103 activists in attendance who heard from Lew Rockwell, Julie Borowski, and others at Auburn University, the home of the Mises Institute.
As usual, we started off the convention with words from YAL National about the mission of our organization, and took a break for lunch after a training session from a representative from the Leadership Institute. During this time, activists had the chance to meet our 12 generous sponsors. They ranged from local to national organizations, and provided excellent networking opportunities for the students in attendance.
If you are a student or recent graduate who is interested in finding work in the liberty movement, the opportunity to network with pro-liberty organizations is another great reason to make time to attend one of our five remaining State Conventions. It's not every day you get such a unique opportunity to jump-start your career in politics!
After lunch, we had FreedomWorks’ Julie Borowski speak about starting a political YouTube channel. Best known for her channel Token Libertarian Girl, which boasts more than 26,000 subscribers and 1 million views, Julie was more than qualified to share her knowledge about her unique brand of activism.
