STARKVILLE, Miss.—Mississippi State University was named a national Voter Friendly Campus today [March 28] for planning and implementing practices encouraging students to register and vote in recent and future elections.
The designation is given by Fair Elections Center’s Campus Vote Project and NASPA–Student Affairs Administrators in Higher Education.
The mission of the 2023 Voter Friendly Campus designation is to bolster colleges and universities’ efforts to help students overcome barriers to participating in the political process—every year, not just during years featuring federal elections. MSU was evaluated based on a written plan for how it would register, educate and turn out student voters in 2022; how it facilitated on-campus voter engagement efforts; and a final analysis of those initiatives.
