Former Hastings resident (my first campaign manager) Phil Weiser is now Governor-elect of Colorado

Wonder who among current students will be future Governors, Senators, Pulitzer Prize winners

This post was contributed by a community member.

Former Hastings student is now Colorado Governor elect (he was my first campaign manager)....today's student will also be our nations leaders!
I first met Phil Weiser when he was a student residing in Hastings. Thirty-five years ago, he managed my first campaign for Greenburgh Town Supervisor. He went on to earn a law degree from NYU. He then clerked for US Supreme Court Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Byron White. Phil later became Dean of the University of Colorado Law School, was elected as Colorado Attorney General. On Tuesday he became Governor-elect of Colorado.

I bring this up because there are many students who we have honored at Greenburgh Town Board meetings who remind me of a young Phil Weiser. Some of the students may eventually be Governors, Senators, Nobel Prize and Pulitzer Prize winners. They are brilliant students and will be future leaders of our nation.
Please watch the interview below with our student news network reporters who interviewed Senator Andrea Stewart Cousins. Wonder if any of the student journalists who participated in this interview will eventually win a Pulitzer Prize!
