The City High Democratic Senatorial Primary Youth Forum (ICHYS), a student-run forum between the Democratic Senatorial Candidates, will be held on Friday, May 27, in City High’s Opstad Auditorium at 7 pm.

The event was organized by City High’s Political Awareness Club (PAC), and will host three Democratic Senatorial Candidates: former State Representative Bob Krause, former State Senator Tom Fiegen, and State Senator/City High Alumnus Rob Hogg. All three will address forum issues important to students in this student-run forum.

PAC will take questions from City High students as well as from the audience. The forum will focus on issues relevant to students and millennials alike. The event will be moderated by two PAC students and a University of Iowa Democrats student.

The public is invited to attend the event. Government TV has accepted an invitation to broadcast the forum.
