LANSING, Michigan — A group of students from Rolland-Warner and Zemmer middle schools have the opportunity to do something most people never will. 14 students are taking part in the Michigan Youth in Government program in Lansing this week, gaining access to the hallowed halls of state government. The students are learning how government works from the inside out. They are taking part in committees, authoring bills and manufacturing consent.
