UNCG Votes Initiative Engages Student Voters
The voting rate for young people is on the rise, and UNCG’s rate is among the highest in the nation. Seventy-four percent of the student body voted in the 2020 election. The students, faculty, and staff behind the UNCG Votes Initiative aim to keep that rate up for the 2022 midterm elections.
