DAY AT THE CAPITOL
Day at the Capitol is Student Government's annual event in partnership with Minnesota Private Colleges, and it is free to all students! During the day, students have scheduled meetings with their elected state representatives at Minnesota's state capitol building. During those times, students will be asked to advocate on behalf of the Minnesota State Grant—something that many Cobbers benefit from. This year, Day at the Capitol took place on March 30, 2023.
​
Students will also have time to
share other concerns that they
may have such as government
spending, gun rights, climate
change, or the cost of
medication.
​
This is a bipartisan event, and
all are encouraged to attend
(even international students or
those not from Minnesota).
Moreover, no prior knowledge
about the Minnesota State
Grand is required, you will
have a training session on what the grant is about, and how to talk to your elected officials.
