Electoral Action Training (EAT)

The United States Student Association and Campus Camp Wellstone have teamed up to offer a comprehensive training to give students the skills to register, educate and mobilize their campuses for the 2008 election and beyond. With a combination of workshops, exercises, and discussions students will be equipped with tried and true electoral organizing skills (plus creative new tactics) and a sophisticated understanding of student power.

The EAT trainers are seasoned USSA student organizers and experienced professional Wellstone trainers from around the country who teach by using their own personal organizing experiences.

At the EAT, you will learn how to:

• Increase the number of registered students on your campus

• Increase student voter turnout on your campus

• Develop a strategic plan for your electoral campaign

• Overcome lack of participation on campus

• Develop effective student leaders

• Create a persuasive message

• Build powerful coalitions
