Today on SA Voices from the Field we are sharing the recent NASPA Live Briefing entitled: Preparing for the Unexpected with Election 2020.

Colleges and universities have an obligation to prepare students to be active, engaged, and informed members of our democracy. With the current rhetoric around electoral processes causing concern for many, and the changing landscape caused by COVID-19, it is more important than ever that institutions are prepared to communicate updates and effective practices for eligible students, faculty and staff to be able to exercise their right to vote this fall. In providing a space for growth and sharing, NASPA has teamed up with the nonpartisan ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge’s Higher Education Presidents’ Council to provide guidance and support in navigating election 2020.

Featured speakers:

Kevin Kruger, President at NASPA Shirley M. Tilghman, President Emerita at Princeton University Thomas Dunne, Deputy Dean of Undergraduate Students at Princeton University Rowena M. Tomaneng, President at San José City College Blake Balajadia, Director, Student Life at San José City College
