Macryn, my d is, of course, volunteering. She is president of the Mac GOP. You may be better off joining the literally thousands of protesters who are expected. I think, as a registered democrat, you would have a hard time getting a volunteer spot. You need to have someone sponsor you to get a spot. They do background checks on everyone, for obvious reasons, and I am fairly sure that party affiliation is checked. I also feel those spots should be saved for people who actually support the party. Participate in the protests, that is an even more "college like" experience.

(z) - my d has lots of Mac friends from New York. I know it is hard to find a time to visit but if you really plan to come in August I would advise that you make your travel plans now. On top of the convention remember there have to be 8 other colleges within a 10 mile radius, getting a room could be tough and I am sure airfare will only go up, good luck.
