Maggie Sutton ’24 is one of 137 college students recognized for their nonpartisan democratic engagement work during the 2023 election cycle.
“Maggie is a shining example of nonpartisan democratic engagement, demonstrated through her exceptional dedication to advocacy, voter education, and voter registration initiatives at the University of St. Thomas,” said Manuela Hill-Muñoz, director of social justice and changemaking at St. Thomas. “Her transformative work with the Global Justice Movement and her leadership in voter education campaigns through CEVEA has directly contributed to increased political awareness and participation within the community.”
Sutton’s representation on the ALL IN Student Voting Honor Roll not only recognizes her efforts but also underscores the importance of colleges and universities in encouraging students to become active and engaged citizens at the ballot box and beyond.
“This recognition on the ALL IN Student Voting Honor Roll is a testament to her outstanding commitment to fostering active and engaged citizenship on our campus,” said Hill-Muñoz. “Her dedication to advocacy, voter education and registration initiatives embodies the spirit of the Civic Action Leadership Award.”
