Washington, DC: The ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge (ALL IN) recognized Saint Paul College for its nonpartisan democratic engagement efforts that fostered high levels of student voter engagement in the 2022 midterm elections. We received the Silver Seal, reflecting our commitment to ensuring that nonpartisan democratic engagement is a defining feature of campus life.

“At Saint Paul College, our mission is grounded in equity and inclusion,” said Saint Paul College President Deidra Peaslee, EdD. “We empower students to lead purposeful lives. And what is more purpose-driven than being civically engaged? Participating in our democracy is a fundamental way for our students to shape the world around them and build a brighter future for all. We believe that education extends far beyond the classroom.”

“The ALL IN Awards were created to celebrate nonpartisan democratic engagement and the outstanding campus voter registration and turnout rates achieved by our ALL IN campuses. Ahead of the 2024 elections, ALL IN campuses are ready to build on the momentum from 2022 to ensure their communities are ready to make an even bigger impact this fall,” said Jennifer Domagal-Goldman, Executive Director of the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge. “ALL IN is proud to celebrate and honor top-performing campuses, like Saint Paul College, who demonstrate that nonpartisan student voter engagement is possible and effective.”

More than 1,060 institutions enrolling more than 10 million students participate in the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge, which supports colleges and universities in achieving excellence in nonpartisan student voter engagement. Campuses can join ALL IN here.
