Every year, ONE hosts representatives from the top 100 Campus Challenge schools in Washington, DC for an exciting 3-day student conference known as the Power 100 Summit.

The 2010 Power 100 Summit will be January 29 – February 1. Students will hear from some amazing speakers sharing their expertise on global poverty and advocacy, including Susan Smith Ellis of (RED); Robert Draper of National Geographic; Will Herberich of the Millennium Campus Network; Scott Hahn, co-founder of the clothing brand Edun; author and activist Pam Cope; and David Lane, our CEO here at ONE. Students will also work with ONE staff to become better advocates in the global anti-poverty movement, and will apply what they’ve learned during a day of visits with legislators on Capitol Hill.

This year’s Power 100 schools have really earned their spots. They have taken more than 50,000 education, awareness-raising and advocacy actions, recruited more than 10,000 new members, and collected more than 20,000 used books for the Liberian Literacy Foundation in just 20 days.

Without further ado, the top 100 schools invited to send representatives to the 2010 Power 100 Summit are:

Missouri State University Saint John Fisher College Bentley University Sacred Heart University Boston University Seton Hall University University of Florida Maharishi University of Management Michigan State University University of Michigan-Ann Arbor Brandeis University Kennesaw State University George Washington University Clark University Luther College University of Virginia San Jose State University Baylor University Philander Smith College University of Central Florida Florida Institute of Technology Rutgers University- New Brunswick Portland State University Indiana University Southeast Hillsborough Community College Hofstra University The Ohio State University Curry College University of Connecticut Virginia Intermont College State University of New York at Binghamton University of Colorado, Boulder Iowa State University Webster University University of Texas at San Antonio University of Texas at Austin Arizona State University- Tempe Rochester Institute of Technology Clemson University Raritan Valley Community College Georgia Institute of Technology University of Pittsburgh Wofford College University of California, Berkeley Saint Petersburg College University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Mount Holyoke College University of Southern California Kansas State University California State University, Channel Islands
