Former Hastings student Phil Weiser (and my first campaign manager) is now Governor-elect of Colorado
wonder who among current students will be future Governors, Senators, Nobel Prize or Pulitzer Prize winners
Former Hastings student is now Colorado Governor elect (he was my first campaign manager)....today's student will also be our nations leaders!
I first met Phil Weiser when he was a student residing in Hastings. Thirty-five years ago, he managed my first campaign for Greenburgh Town Supervisor. He went on to earn a law degree from NYU. He then clerked for US Supreme Court Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Byron White. Phil later became Dean of the University of Colorado Law School, was elected as Colorado Attorney General. On Tuesday he became Governor-elect of Colorado.
I bring this up because there are many students who we have honored at Greenburgh Town Board meetings who remind me of a young Phil Weiser. Some of the students may eventually be Governors, Senators, Nobel Prize and Pulitzer Prize winners. They are brilliant students and will be future leaders of our nation.
Please watch the interview below with our student news network reporters who interviewed Senator Andrea Stewart Cousins. Wonder if any of the student journalists who participated in this interview will eventually win a Pulitzer Prize!

The first show the student journalists produced was an interview with State Senator Andrea Stewart Cousins.
