About Weber State Votes

We are a 40+ member group that meets semi-annually to discuss, assess and plan political engagement programming and events on campus. We strive to meet the needs of our campus through voter registration, voter education, and voter mobilization. All of these efforts create active and engaged citizens.

To accomplish this, we identify gaps in political engagement efforts, then create and implement an action plan each year to address those needs.

While we actively assess political work happening across campus, we largely implement our action plans by partnering with divisions and programs across the university. The bulk of the work is done with students, faculty and staff in mind and is available on campus. Specifically, we focus on the tools of good citizenship, like how to get involved, or how to talk about uncomfortable topics.

We are housed in the Olene S. Walker Institute of Politics & Public Service, which coordinates our efforts.
