Voting season is approaching and a grad student is urging the SIU community to use their voice.
Travis Washington, a SIU grad student and president of the college democratic party, hosted an event called register to vote.
Washington says voting helps gives students a chance to change the status quo.
In organizing this event, Washington says he credits it to Father Brown and his granny for motivating him to always push forward.
