Voter Registration

The right to vote is a significant privilege and responsibility as a United States citizen.  Harry Emerson Fosdick has stated:  “Democracy is based upon the conviction that there are extraordinary possibilities in ordinary people.”  In 2004, 81.6% of registered 18-29 year olds turned out to vote.  The Higher Education Act of 1998 requires institutions of higher education to make a “good faith effort” to get their students registered to vote.  This web site partially fulfills that institutional responsibility under federal law.  Truman State University strongly encourages students to register to vote and to exercise that privilege and responsibility in local, state, and federal elections.
