HHE Student Member Activities

Hoosiers for Higher Education is a non-partisan, grassroots organization sponsored by the IU Office of Public Affairs and Governmental Relations and the IU Alumni Association.

As a student member, you are invited to assist alumni, parents, faculty, and staff in raising public awareness about the importance of higher education to Indiana's future. Membership is FREE — we will never ask for money and your level of involvement is entirely up to you.

HHE seeks to ensure an affordable, high-quality education for all students at Indiana University. To help meet this goal, students regularly participate in the following activities:

Participate in writing campaigns to your hometown legislator
Make phone calls to legislators with votes on House and Senate bills that impact IU
Attend the annual Statehouse Visit in February and have lunch with your hometown legislators
Visit with legislators visiting campus and provide feedback on your IU experience

Serve as a student leader on campus by promoting HHE lobbying efforts among fellow students
Educate the campus community on legislative issues impacting Indiana University
Recruit HHE student members
Coordinate phone call and letter writing campaigns in the dormitories and student organizations
