Grose plans appoint a student volunteer coordinator for each district, who will ensure that NCFCD mem­ bers can attend their opponents' party fundraisers or conventions at reduced or no cost, and will help mem­ bers secure positions on congressional staffs. While Heineman's and Jones' futures are more un­ certain than incumbent Sen. Jesse Helms', Grose still holds out hope for a defeat of Helms in 1996. "A lot of people will say it is impossible, but remem­ ber that at this time in 1991, everyone was saying that it would be impossible to defeat George Bush," Grose said. Many NCFCD members support Grose's dedication to state campaigns. "The potential is really great," said Trinity fresh­ man Chris Lam, a member of Duke Democrats' Ex­ ecutive Board. "If we can get a network going for mail­ ings and literature drops and phone calling, there is a definite effect on spreading word and increasing name recognition." Accompanying Grose on NCFCD's Execu­ tive Board will be Trinity sophomore Raj Goyle, who will serves as treasurer. Lam said the two posts will greatly increase the visibility and integration of Duke Democrats into the NCFCD. College Democrats both at the University and other colleges pointed to Grose's large amount of political experience as their reason for supporting him. Grose served on NCFCD's Executive Council this year and has worked on the election campaigns of Terry Sanford, Jim Hunt, Bill Clinton, David Price and Richard Moore in addition to his work in DSG and Duke College Demo­ crats. "He's just proven his leadership many times over," said Lam, who seconded Grose's nomination.
