Achieve Lead Vote
Susquehanna is working harder than ever to encourage student participation in democracy. In 2020, a diverse working group of university faculty and staff was assembled to brainstorm new ways to engage students in voting and elections. From that collaboration, we have created this hub of information with the aim of providing a central location for resources and answers to frequently asked questions surrounding voting and election processes.
