Welcome to Rep. Mark Strama's Campaign Academy 2010 Blog!
The Mark Strama for State Representative Campaign Academy is a unique summer opportunity for high school and college students to work inside a high-profile campaign. We are learning the nuts and bolts of modern politics as well as the important policy questions that confront state government. Lunch speakers come in everyday ranging from current and former elected officials, political consultants, and university professors to state policy experts to share their experiences in politics with us.
Campaign Academy has been dedicated to ensuring that all students like us have a rewarding and challenging experience, while making a difference in the political system.

Professor Michael Webber
This morning, Professor Michael Webber came to speak to us about renewable energy. Professor Webber gave us great insight into how wind, solar, and nuclear energies are going to be the energies we use in the future. He also provived us with a sobering lecture on how much more energy Texans consume per a capita than the rest of the world. We learned a great deal about energy consumption and the effectiveness of various renewable energy alternatives from Professor Webber. We hope that he will come back to the Campaign Academy in the future.
