SERVICE-LEARNING:

In 2008-09 CIVITAS students participated in on- and off-campus non-partisan voter registration. Plus, each student selected one of three other political participation activities:

  • Democratic campaign activities
  • Republican campaign activities
  • Off-campus non-partisan voter engagement and awareness activities. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette profiled one of these activities, led by student Deana Munoz and facilitated by The League of Young Voters.
