Campuses that join the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge complete a set of action items, with the support of ALL IN staff, to institutionalize nonpartisan democratic engagement at their institution.
Join the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge
Select a primary contact person and complete the online form to have your campus join ALL IN. Any campus administrator or faculty member may serve as the primary contact; students may not serve in this role. We suggest that before committing your campus, you receive approval from the appropriate individual, office, or department.
Establish and Institutionalize a Campus-Wide Voting Coalition
Convene a nonpartisan campus-wide committee that includes members from all important stakeholder groups, including academic affairs, student affairs, faculty, senior administration, and the student body.
Develop And Implement A Nonpartisan Campus Action Plan
Document a nonpartisan action plan that describes your institution’s strategy to increase student voting rates and help students form the habits of active and engaged citizenship. Your plan must include your campus’ participation in the National Study of Learning, Voting, and Engagement (NSLVE). Action plans will be shared publicly on the Challenge’s website.
Participate in the National Study of Learning, Voting, and Engagement
Share your campus’ NSLVE report with ALL IN. Information from the report will be used to determine designation seals and awards. Reports will not be shared publicly, however we ask that you post them on your campus’ website.
Be Recognized
All participating campuses are recognized for joining ALL IN and making a commitment to increasing student voting rates and helping students form the habits of active and engaged citizenship. Campuses with student voting rates of 50% and above will earn seals, and campuses with exemplary efforts will win awards.
