Join Student Affairs at locations across campus from Oct. 2-6 for National Voter Education Week. The campus community will have the opportunity to check voter registration status, find polling locations, understand ballots, make plans to vote in person or remotely, and inspire others to get involved. This week is all about helping voters learn about voting and overcome barriers to participating in community elections.
To encourage voter education, each week follows a theme of how to register and get prepared for upcoming elections and LMU has paired the events with a time/location on campus where the campus community can come out for free treats, register, and get help with next steps to participate in the next election in your community.
