Club Opportunities
The Pacific Student Political Society is one of the many Service, Politics & Advocacy Clubs active on the Pacific Campus. As we face increasingly fraught election years, it has become apparent that we need spaces on campus, and in our country, where people can hold civil conversations about their political beliefs. While hard, these conversations allow us to find common ground and to challenge, revise, and strengthen our own understanding of the world. Leadership and participation opportunities abound with PSPS and other campus club - consider joining today!

There's Still Work to Be Done
In 2021-2022 we were recognized as the first institution in the state of Oregon to receive "Voter Friendly Campus" status and we made for the fourth year in a row. For what did we earn these honors? We are making an earnest effort to do better at empowering our students to vote (when eligible) and to do so with good information and understanding.
We rely on a broad group of stakeholders to help our students participate in each election year. Plus, ANYONE can contribute to a work group, even those who cannot, for one reason or another, vote. If you're a student, faculty/staff member, alum, or community member - we need your input! Please email us for more information and to join us efforts.
