Your memo will include:

1) Brief interviews with three members of the USF community concerning which is the most important issue San Francisco supervisor Eric Mar should be working on and why he should be working on it. Give age, major or job, hometown for each source. (Also keep count of the number of "I don't knows" or "Who cares?" it takes you to get three thoughtful opinions.)

2) A brief discussion based on your research - interviews and/or library and/or online - concerning an political issue you care about that you think the supervisor should be working on. Source as needed.

3) Three questions you will be ready to ask Victor Lim, a legislative aide in Supervisor Mar's office, when he holds an in-class news conference next Friday.

Note: It's a *news conference*. If you quit asking questions, it's over.
