In the Beginning

When Seton and Redmond decided to run for office together, liberal council watchers shook their heads.

Jobe G. Danganan '99, Redmond's running mate from a previous campaign, would not endorse the pair.

"Everyone told me that I was selling out when I ran with Noah," Redmond says.
