Gamers Have the Skills to Make Great Politicians…

World of Warcraft player Colleen Lachowicz captures seat in Maine state Senate despite Republican attacks on her ‘bizarre double life’ as a gamer

I think gamers would make great politicians. In game we have to be able to communicate, manage our time and resources, understand technology and how to use it, and work well with others. We also do all of this on top of our daily lives as parents, employees, students, and more. And, last but not least – we do it all for FUN!

So congratulations on your new state senate seat, Colleen Lachicz – Orc Rogue. From me, Diana Harrelson – Anthropologist, PhD Student, User Experience Designer, and proud to be a level 86 (working my way up to 90!) Night Elf Druid.

Game on!
