M: Hi, I am going door to door tonight to tell people about the student action union. Do you have a few minutes?
W: Sure. You know,  I think I read something in the newspaper last week.
M: Yeah, there was an article about us since the last issue. See,  we are trying to protect some of the open spaces on campus.
W: That’s right. You are the group that is opposing the extension of the parking lot next to Smith Hall, right?
M: That’s us. We just feel it is important to save some of the natural beauty of the campus, like those precious trees. Some of those trees are hundreds of years old.
W: It is a pretty place. My friends and I had picnics over there.
M: Then you understand how we feel. We are organizing a meeting on Thursday afternoon to get the administration to reconsider the parking lot plan.
W: Well,  I have a class on Thursday afternoon.
M: But maybe you could sign your name on this paper. We’re going to summit it to the administration to show how the students feel about this.
W: Sure,  let me get a pen and I’ll sign it.
M: I have a pen right here. And let me leave you this handout about the student action union. Maybe you could come to some of our meetings. We get together once a month.
W: Yeah, I’d like to know more about your group. Let me know when the next meeting is and I’ll try to be there.
