Mary Seacole Hall hosts "Elect Her: Campus Women Win"The centerpiece program of the Elect Her initiative is a training program that encourages college women to run for student government on their college or university campuses. Research has shown that women who run for student body elections in college are more likely to run for office as adults. The training addresses the disparity between the high percentage of women in colleges and universities and their low percentage in student governments.
The daylong Elect Her training teaches college women why more women are needed in student government and provides them with the skills to run successful student body campaigns. Students learn how to create campaign messages and communicate them effectively as well as how to reach out and mobilize voters on campus.
This Year's facilitator is Emmy Award Winning journalist from Washington D.C Tash Cole.
