Undergraduate Student Government took the lead on distributing informational postcards at several events throughout the fall, including Move-In Weekend, An Afternoon on the Town and our culminating day of action on National Voter Registration Day. Michigan Tech’s Voter Engagement Coalition also created a marketing campaign encouraging students both to register to vote and to request an absentee ballot. In order to provide greater depth, the Van Pelt and Opie Library trained their reference and "Ask Us" desk staff to help students do candidate and/or issue research as the midterms approached. Michigan Tech was evaluated based on a written action plan for how we intended to register, educate and turn out student voters in 2022 how we facilitated voter engagement efforts on our campus and a final analysis of our efforts.Īs part of our endeavor to be designated a Voter Friendly Campus, information on voter engagement was disseminated to students through an Orientation Canvas module and a shared module available to all instructors. The Voter Friendly Campus initiative recognizes institutions that planned and implemented practices that encouraged their students to register and vote in the 2022 elections and in coming years. Tech is one of 258 campuses in 38 states and the District of Columbia to receive the designation. Michigan Tech has been named a Voter Friendly Campus by the Fair Elections Center’s Campus Vote Project and NASPA – Student Affairs Administrators in Higher Education. ![]()
