Vote Homepage

Barnard enjoys a long history of civic engagement. From early efforts to secure voting rights for women to active participation in voting drives and forging critical connections to conversations about civil rights, Barnard students have always practiced democracy using the full range of tools available to them. Voting is one of the most fundamental features of a democracy. Through partnerships with student leadership and support from faculty, staff, and the Office of Community Engagement & Inclusion, Barnard Votes facilitates voter registration and education, engages in advocacy, drives independent research, and acts as a hub for collaboration with partner campus organizations.
