Make Voting Day Class Free!

The VTSU NAACP at Castleton are petitioning the school to make Voting Day class free for the rest of VTSU. Instead of classes the day will be used to help students, faculty, and staff get registered and to the polls to cast their vote. The NAACP is a nonpartisan group, so they will not influence your vote, but believe everyone deserves the necessary support and accessibility to do so. If you support having Voting Day class free, please use the link below to sign the NAACP's petition: The Petition *Photo credit: graphicexpand on vecteezy.com
