College Students, Campus Leaders and Election Officials Recognized for Voter Registration, Education and Turnout Efforts in 2024

ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge Honors 269 Students, Campus Stakeholders and Election Officials Across the Country for Excellence in Student Voter Engagement in 2024

Washington, DC: Today, the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge (ALL IN) announced that 232 college students were selected for the fourth annual Student Voting Honor Roll, and 37 campus leaders, partners and election officials were recognized with Individual Champion Awards. ALL IN’s Student Voting Honor Roll and Individual Champion Awards recognize students, faculty and staff, presidents, athletic coaches, partner organizations and election officials who have succeeded in advancing nonpartisan college student voter registration, education and turnout efforts in their communities. 

Student Voting Honor Roll honorees span 41 states and represent 39 community colleges, 194 four-year institutions, 44 Hispanic-Serving Institutions and eight Historically Black Colleges and Universities. The full list of student honorees is available here. 

Campus leaders and election officials were a driving force in getting campus communities registered and to the ballot box in 2024. The full list of Individual Champion Award honorees who helped students make their voices heard in a historic election cycle is available here.

“Helping college students become engaged participants in our democracy is a community effort, and today’s honorees all played an important role in ensuring students made their voices heard during the 2024 election,” said Jen Domagal-Goldman, Executive Director of the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge. “With 100,000 local elections happening across the country in 2025, ALL IN campus leaders and students continue to ensure that every eligible student has the information they need to cast their ballot. The Student Voting Honor Roll and Individual Champion Award-winners recognized today lead by example, helping students make nonpartisan voter participation a lifelong habit.” 

A recent survey from CIRCLE found that 48% of under-35 youth who did not vote in 2024 heard little or nothing at all about how to vote, compared to the 15% of under-35 youth who cast their ballots. By integrating nonpartisan voter registration and education into campus life, colleges and universities can have a measurable impact in encouraging students to become active and engaged citizens.

The ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge empowers colleges and universities to achieve excellence in nonpartisan student civic engagement. With the support of the ALL IN staff, campuses that join the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge complete a set of action items to institutionalize nonpartisan civic learning, voter participation and ongoing engagement in our democracy on their campus. The ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge engages more than 1,000 institutions enrolling over 10 million students in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Campuses can join ALL IN here.
