This is part 2 of the JCCC Board of Trustees candidate forum held on Friday, March 22.
Again, I apologize for the shaky camera work.

Sunflower Brew TV Episode 11a - JCCC Board of Trustees Candidate Forum
SBTV was on hand last night to get video of the Johnson County Community College Board of Trustees candidate forum.
The event was hosted by the League of Women Voters and moderated by Kansas City Star reporter Dave Helling. Candidates participating in the forum included three incumbents - Jerry Cook, Melody Rayl and Stephanie Sharp - and two challengers, including friend of the podcast Lee Cross.
The actual event was almost two hours long, so I was forced to break it up into at least two parts.
Because the JCCC Board of Trustees doesn't like tripods in the Board Room, I went handheld the entire time, so I apologize for the shakiness of this video.
Part 2 of the forum is on its way. Thank you for your patience.

Sunflower Brew TV Episode 10 - JCCC Clubs and Orgs Day
Today, Johnson County Community College held their Clubs and Orgs Day - a chance for the school's various clubs and organizations to get out and promote themselves. I hung out primarily with the JCCC College Democrats, who also hosted JCCC Board of Trustees candidate (and friend of the podcast) Lee Cross.
However, because the fine folks at ECAV (the student-run radio station at JCCC) were making a lot of noise, it was virtually impossible to do a good quality interview. So, I opted to do a stills slideshow with some annotations.
In the interest of political balance, I also got a shot of where the College Republicans were supposed to set up.
