Governmental Relations Committee

The Governmental Relations Committee promotes an environment where students feel encouraged to engage in both the university and surrounding communities. Our members are prepared to answer any questions students may have about the university and surrounding communities, and we are heavily involved with other campus organizations for a cohesive platform for student enhancement. By hosting tabling and social events both with and without other campus entities, members work directly with students to inform them about their networks and opportunities to make an impact both on and off of campus.

Committee Projects thus far:

Voter Registration Tabling

FYC’s GR committee hosts Voter Registration tables where students are provided with voter and absentee ballot registration information alongside sample ballots and nonpartisan policy information. We stress that everyone’s voice matters, and as a reminder, GO VOTE!

Election Night Watch Party

FYC and Housing have previously hosted an Election Night Watch Party on the night of the general Election. Live broadcasting of the event, special activities, and guest speakers were all included!
