Bariekman was one of 22 students ages 14-16 that took part in the pro- gram during the second week of the 2012 legisla- tive session. Pages deliver mail, run errands, present the flag and learn parlia- mentary procedures first- hand. Students also try their hand at drafting a bill and engage in a mock session. Bariekman wrote a bill, which tries to alleviate sleep deprivation for teen- agers. Her bill would mandate that no school should start before 8:30 a.m. Sen. Tim Sheldon from the 35th District sponsored Bariekman. "The page program of- fers a unique way for stu- dents around the state to learn about the legislative process," Sheldon said. "I'm happy Madlyn was able to take advantage of the opportunity." Bariekman said she en- joyed the process. "My favorite part of the whole page program was meeting Sen. Sheldon." she said. "I also enjoyed get- ting to learn about bills, I never knew that anyone could write a bill; l could even write a bill," Bariekman said she hopes to one day become an author. Currently, her favorite book is "Eragon," written by Christopher Paolini. Bariekman partic- ipates in her school's honor choir. Courte_  .
