Instructor Resources

Rutgers University faculty and staff play a vital role in preparing students to engage in politics and be active, engaged community members. Here you can access nonpartisan voting and civic engagement resources created by the RU Voting program to infuse civic learning into the classroom.

Our Mission

Rutgers’ mission of educating “involved citizens and effective leaders for a dynamic world” has never been more important. Towards this end, the RU Voting program has developed resources to make it simple for Rutgers instructors to implement civic learning into the classroom. 

Using an evidenced-based approach to infuse civic learning and engagement opportunities throughout all facets of campus life, we are committed to:

  • Supporting and Encouraging Student Voting
  • Encouraging Political Discourse
  • Infusing Curricular and Co-Curricular Experiences with Democratic Learning
  • Evaluating and Benchmarking our Efforts 

If you have any questions about instructor resources, please reach out to Jessica Ronan-Frisch at jronan@eagleton.rutgers.edu.
