Staff Writer Cameron Deal has always been interested in serving his community. Whether organizing in-kind donation drives for local homeless shelters, fundraising for youth nonprofits, or founding a music education program for under-resourced children, he has always been looking for his next opportunity to give back. When looking for something to get involved in this year, he stumbled upon Vanderbilt Political Review and jumped at the chance to hone his writing skills. Now, he looks to foster discussion on the quantitative aspects of public policy and civic engagement while beginning his first year at Vanderbilt University.
