Absentee ballots are now available for Michigan voters! If you are registered to vote in Michigan, you can request your ballot today by completing the online application. To ensure there is enough time to receive and return an absentee ballot, plan on submitting the absentee ballot application online at least 15 days before Election Day (Tuesday, November 5).

Did you know? Michigan voters can decide to be placed on a permanent absentee ballot list. Their local clerk will then automatically mail them an absentee ballot for all local, state, and federal elections.

Completing An Absentee Ballot:

Absentee ballot envelopes contain a ballot, a secrecy sleeve, and ballot marking instructions. You should complete their absentee ballot by carefully following the written instructions included with the ballot. Absentee ballots must be received by your local clerk by 8 p.m. on Election Day with the exception of military and overseas ballots. You have several options for returning an absentee ballot in Michigan, including mailing your completed and signed absentee ballot to your local clerk’s office using the provided pre-paid envelope.

Not a Michigan Resident?

No worries! If you are a registered voter in another state, you may still be able to request an absentee ballot. Follow the links below to learn about the requirements and process for your state:

Wisconsin – Illinois – Minnesota – Other States

Wilderness First Responder Course – Registration opens September 20th!

The curriculum is comprehensive and practical, including all of the essential principles and skills required to assess and manage medical problems in isolated and extreme environments. The on-site instruction that follows reinforces and expands on the knowledge already acquired.

The Hybrid 5-day format is for individuals and sponsors with less time available for on-site training and requires 30 hours of pre-course preparation. Students must register at least 3 weeks before the course date. All students must complete all pre-course e-learning prior to arrival on course. *Must be 18 years or older*

There is still time to register before election day on Tuesday, November 5th! Every eligible voter should check their Voter Registration Status to ensure their address is up to date and that they are still registered. To be eligible to vote you must be 18, a U.S. citizen, and a resident of the state in which you register. Some other criteria may apply by state.

Check your voter registration status for:

Michigan – Wisconsin – Illinois – Minnesota – Other States

Not registered yet? Register to vote in:

Michigan – Wisconsin – Illinois – Minnesota – Other States

The deadline to register online or by mail in Michigan is October 21.

Not sure where to register?

If you live in the local area while you attend Michigan Tech, you can register to vote here (at your on-campus or off-campus address) instead of at your permanent address, even if your previous address is out-of-state. It’s up to you. The key is entering the address where you wish to vote on the registration form. You can only vote in one place! Registering at a new address cancels any prior registrations at an old address. In the state of Michigan, the address on your driver’s license must match where you register to vote – if you change one you must change the other. With expanded options for voting early or absentee, you don’t have to be in your voting district on election day to vote.

Huskies aren’t afraid of hard work – we roll up our sleeves and get the job done!

For more than ten years, we’ve partnered with the American Red Cross to host some very successful blood drives. On September 4th and 5th we are doing it again in the MUB Ballroom from 10 AM-4 PM. At our most successful drive in recent years, we worked together to collect 210 pints of blood. It is heartening to know that together we have accomplished so much good. In light of the nationwide blood shortage, we are setting a goal to go even further this time!

So Huskies, it’s time to make an appointment, roll up your sleeve, and give blood. To schedule your appointment or to learn more, download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit RedCrossBlood.org, call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or enable the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device.

Completion of a RapidPass online health history questionnaire is encouraged to help speed up the donation process. To get started, follow the instructions at RedCrossBlood.org/RapidPass or use the Blood Donor App.

A blood donor card, driver’s license, or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age in most states (16 with parental consent where allowed by state law), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood.
