Former Speaker Newt Gingrich to Host Policy Classes for Delegates
The Republican National Committee convention today announced details of "Newt U," a series of public policy workshops for delegates designed to support and expound upon the overall messages of the convention. Former U.S. House Speaker and one-time college professor Newt Gingrich will host Newt U, which will examine the convention's daily themes in greater detail and give delegates an opportunity to dive deeper into those issues.
Each class is open to credentialed convention media and activists and party officials attending the convention. They will be held at a different campus every day so delegates located throughout the Tampa region will have an opportunity to participate in the sessions.
