About the event:

The four major-party candidates for University of Michigan Regent have confirmed their participation: Mike Behm, Rob Steele, Ronald Weiser, and Regent Kathy White.

The forum will be moderated by Susan Smith, President of the League of Women Voters of Michigan. Questions will be composed by representatives of both the League and Ford School students, who will assist in asking the questions. Timers will be League members. The format will allow for questions from the audience; it is not a debate. 

About the League of Women Voters:

The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan political organization, encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy.
