PI SIGMA PI:  Pi Sigma Pi will hold its Officer Elections on Tuesday at 7:45 a.m. in the Lower Commons. Candidates for President should be ready to read their statements and all candidates will introduce themselves. We will also brainstorm ideas for next year.

VOTER REGISTRATION:  The next election is fast approaching. If you will be 18 by November 8 and are a US citizen, you can help pick our governor, our Senator, your Congressperson and other officials who impact every aspect of our lives. Register to vote.  Volunteers from the League of Women Voters of Park Ridge will help register students to vote in the LRC on Thursday and Friday from 8:30-3:00.  Students will have the option to register online or by completing a paper form with a League volunteer. 

The requirements for each are a little different.

To register online, you will need:  your Illinois Driver’s License or State ID and the last four digits of your social security number.

To have a volunteer help you complete a paper form, you will need: two forms of ID, one that must have your current address, and, if one of the IDs is not an Illinois Driver’s License or an Illinois State ID, the last four digits of your social security number.

If you forget your IDs but still want to register, come down to the LRC anyway.  League members can give you the tools you need to register at home.

If you’re already registered, amplify your vote by getting your friends to register.
