We joined some great peer institutions recently in signing on to the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge and creating our first Campus Action Plan!
The Plan will continue to evolve over time, as led by the steering committee.
In 2020, we intend to increase student voter registration rates by 10% from the last Presidential election to 83% overall.
In 2020, we intend to increase the voting rate of registered students by 5% from the last Presidential election to 85% overall.
We intend to increase democratic engagement and civic learning in our Clemson graduate and undergraduate academic curricula. We will pilot in spring 2020 and intend that faculty of at least twenty courses have explicitly created voter education activities. In academic year 2020-2021, we intend that faculty of at least 100 courses have explicitly created voter education activities.
We intend to increase democratic engagement and civic learning in our co-curricular and programmatic offerings. We will integrate voter education activities into our co-curricular and programmatic portfolios such that we reach 10,000 students between spring 2020 and spring 2021, with representation by gender and race that is equal to our student body demographics.
Create University-level democratic engagement and civic learning student learning outcomes by 2022. Work toward implementation strategies for these outcomes such that all students are reached by 2025.
