From Kerry Burgott '09:
Trick or Vote is a national program put on by the Bus Project where basically volunteers dress up in costume and go door to door on Halloween reminding people to vote. It's a really great concept, is tons of fun, and actually works. To further encourage UPS students to possibly get involved, they should know that there is usually an epic party afterward.
Here is the link to the official site of Trick or Vote: trickorvote.org. People can find the Trick or Vote group closest to them, which will most likely be the Washington Bus, located out of Seattle. Involvement, even if it's just volunteering, with political organizations like the Bus looks good on resumes. Also, participation events like Trick or Vote can lead to more volunteering, then possibly internships, and then maybe even a job, such as in my case- always something to keep in mind.
Thanks,
Kerry Burgott
