The Rudy Giuliani Presidential Committee today announced South Carolina College Students for Rudy, a coalition of students from across the state supporting Mayor Giuliani. Phil Paradise, a College of Charleston student, will serve as Chair of South Carolina Students for Rudy.

This grassroots coalition will help Mayor Giuliani share his vision of results oriented leadership around campuses across the state and will support the campaign through volunteer efforts and campus recruitment.

“Students across the country have grown up witnessing what Mayor Giuliani did to transform New York City and we saw him lead in times of crisis. It’s exactly this kind of leadership that we are looking for in our next President to ensure that we all have opportunities to succeed,” said Paradise.

“These students have been a big part of our early success in the state,” said Barry Wynn, South Carolina State Chair for the Giuliani Campaign. “As the Mayor’s campaign continues to attract supporters across the state we’ll continue to rely on the enthusiasm of these young leaders to help Rudy win in South Carolina.”
