Local Universities and Colleges Receive the “2025 Voter Friendly Campus” Designation
Posted by Voter Friendly Campus on April 1, 2025
Student Affairs Administrators in Higher Education announced that 272 campuses in 39 states and the District of Columbia were designated as “Voter Friendly Campuses.” The initiative recognizes institutions that have planned and implemented nonpartisan practices that encourage their students to register and vote.
The mission of the Voter Friendly Campus designation is to bolster colleges and universities’ nonpartisan efforts to help students overcome barriers to participating in the political process – every year, not just during years featuring federal elections. Those selected were evaluated based on a written plan for how institutions planned to register, educate, and turnout student voters in 2024, how they facilitated voter engagement efforts on their campuses, followed by a final analysis of their nonpartisan efforts.
