ENACT at Augustana University in South Dakota: State and Local Politics (Government 301)

In February, ENACT Faculty Fellow Prof. EmilyStudents in the ENACT virtual visit Wanless of Augustana University in South Dakota welcomed ENACT Your Vote Campus Student Engagement Fellow Yoni Kahn ’24 and ENACT Student Delegate Clay Napurano ’24 to her course (via Zoom).

Kahn and Napurano shared reflections on their experiences as students in ENACT Director Melissa Stimell’s “Advocacy for Policy Change” course at Brandeis University, and offered advice to Prof. Wanless’ students on their first day of their class.

"My students were thrilled to learn about all of the resources at their disposal from ENACT,” said Wanless. “And as they look ahead to meeting with legislators and community leaders it was reassuring to hear from ENACT alumni that impostor syndrome is real, but can be overcome."
