Mission

As citizens in a democracy, one of our most basic responsibilities is to exercise our right to vote. As a vehicle that carries a large portion of citizens into adulthood, it is a basic responsibility of our higher education institutions to encourage the widespread involvement in the electoral process. We at FHSU strive to provide our students with academic and extacurricular excellence. Accordingly, involvement in governance and the political processes of Hays, Kan., and the United States is paramount for the students of FHSU. Over the next few months FHSU students will be given many opportunities to get involved in the political process. The most important task facing them is voter registration.

Campus voter registration and education programs are powerful tools for building participation in the voting process. Our mission for FHSU will be to register, educate, and mobilize 400 (or more) students. This means that students will be afforded the opportunity to learn more about the political processes, and their own ideology. Our goal is to get FHSU students registered to vote, provide ample educational resources, and to get those students to the ballot box on Election Day.
