AFSA encourages graduating high school seniors who are children of AFSA members and plan to begin college in 2027 to apply for this valuable educational opportunity.
"The only difference between opportunity and obligation is perspective,” Garrett says. “If I see something as a chore, I’m not going to do very well, but if I see it as a challenge, I am.”
As we look for ways to get schools reopened around the nation, we are seeing there are no easy answers. AFSA's own report on school reopening states, "after months of research by the medical and scientific community, and thoughtful dialogue with education professionals, we conclude that at least until there is a vaccine, there is no single solution that encompasses every school district in the nation."
In less than five months, we’ll be at Election Day. Hopefully by then, most voters will have cast ballots by mail, though whether you do so depends on the whims of politicians, notably Republicans who feel threatened by such balloting and the increased participation it implies.
Regardless, this time voters should take their ballots very seriously, because this year, literally, your life may depend on your vote.
