"Thanks for all the great information. It was empowering." 

"I consider myself a well-informed citizen but I learned a great deal of new
information. ... got an urge to be more engaged in civic activity." 

"I came because I feel in this election year what the media is reporting is
very different from what is happening. I feel like our voices do not have
the power they once had and want to find out how we can remedy this. This
talk was very informational and gave me some ideas of how to make a
difference starting locally." 

"Thanks so much for this interesting and engaging workshop on civics."
