This is a campus-wide event, involving OWU students, faculty and staff as well as members of the Delaware community. The convention is a simulation of the national party\u2019s convention, which takes place later in the summer. We spend two days debating the issues in a party platform and nominating the party\u2019s presidential and vice presidential candidates.<\/p>\n<p>From event planning to banner-making to stage construction, Mock Convention relies on the teamwork and talent of OWU students. Come find out how you might get involved! Planning begins this spring.<\/p>\n<p>REMEMBER \u2013 Mock Convention happens only once during your 4 years at OWU, so find out how you can get involved!<\/p>\n<p>P.S.
