The 2020 Election Comes to Campus: Student Citizenship and Civic Engagement

Thursday, September 17, 2020

2-3 p.m. ET

Colleges and universities are places where students can learn to be civic leaders. Yet data suggests that college students turn out to vote less often than older cohorts.

Many Generation Z students are eager to engage with the democratic process and are taking steps to promote civic literacy and voter turnout in their communities, even amidst the challenges of COVID-19 and a remote or partially-remote fall semester.

Join us this Constitution Day, September 17, as we hear from student leaders and other experts about their efforts to foster a thriving democracy from our nation’s college and university campuses.
