Wolfpack, it is almost time to prepare your backpacks and register for all kinds of engaging events and organizations! Some events will take place at the beginning of the fall semester, and their deadline will be approaching soon!

You can get a head start on maximizing your experiences, activities, events, and more by accessing some very helpful tools at NC State. Check out the list below:

Fall 2022 Leadership Development Program Registration 

 Now Open by 9/6

Students earn a co-curricular certificate by attending the courses, participating in an ongoing leadership experience where they apply their new knowledge, meeting with a coach and completing a reflection paper.

People could put this certification on their RESUME and talk about it in the interview. They could also find their own potential and ability to make a positive impact on campus and in the community and use this leadership experience in their future career path.

It is offered at no cost and is open to all students. It will remain open until filled or when courses start on 9/6.

Pack the Polls is a non-partisan voter information and advocacy coalition at NC State University designed to connect and engage with members of the NC State community about voting resources.

The Pack the Polls Ambassador program is an exciting opportunity to sharpen your presentation skills, get to know others interested in voting advocacy, and encourage peers to participate in the elections. Ambassadors visit classrooms, set up tables in Talley Student Union, and have conversations with members of the NC State community as a form of direct advocacy and information sharing. This experience aims to develop ambassadors into better leaders by sharpening their skills and growing their network.

Applications are now open and will run from August 18 until September 1.

If you have any questions regarding the Pack the Polls Ambassadors program, please contact Wanya Ward at wtward3@ncsu.edu
