Voter Registration Information

President Obama often speaks of his desire to increase the number of citizens who are actively involved in the politcal process. We encourage all students to register to vote. As a Catholic and Jesuit institution, Loyola is committed the cause of social justice.  We encourage our students to participate in the electoral process as it is critical in living a life as "men and women for others" who are aware of  the needs of under privileged and marginalized populations.
