Wake Forest Senior Natalie Borsuk Named to National Student Voting Honor Roll
Wake Forest University senior Natalie Borsuk (’25) has been recognized for her exceptional efforts in promoting civic engagement, earning a coveted spot on the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge’s (ALL IN) 2025 Student Voting Honor Roll. Borsuk is one of only 232 college students nationwide selected for this honor, which celebrates students who have gone above and beyond to advance nonpartisan student voter registration, education, and turnout in their campus communities during the 2024 election cycle.

A Virginia native, Borsuk is known for her deep commitment to community-led initiatives through The Office of Civic & Community Engagement at Wake Forest University. Her leadership was particularly impactful in her role as co-director of Deacs Decide, where she spearheaded non-partisan efforts for student election engagement on campus. Her dedication extends to various other campus programs, including D.E.S.K., where she recently served as a co-director, as well as Hit The Bricks and Project Pumpkin.
Borsuk’s selection to the Honor Roll follows the recent announcement of Wake Forest University being recognized as a Voter Friendly Campus for 2025-2026, placing it in a select group of campuses nationwide committed to fostering student voting.
“Whether they hosted nonpartisan voter registration drives or early voting celebrations, the students honored today made sure their peers did not sleep in on Election Day,” said Jen Domagal-Goldman, Executive Director of the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge. “With 100,000 local elections happening across the country in 2025, ALL IN students continue to ensure that everyone on their campuses has the information they need to cast their ballot. The 232 Student Voting Honor Roll honorees lead by example, making nonpartisan voter participation a lifelong habit for themselves and their peers.”
The work of students like Borsuk is critical. A recent survey from CIRCLE (The Center for Information & Research on Civic Learning and Engagement) found that 48% of under-35 youth who did not vote in 2024 reported hearing little or nothing at all about how to vote, compared to only 15% of under-35 youth who did cast their ballots. By integrating nonpartisan voter registration and education into campus life, colleges and universities can significantly encourage students to become active and engaged citizens.
The ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge empowers colleges and universities to achieve excellence in nonpartisan student civic engagement. The initiative engages more than 1,000 institutions enrolling over 10 million students across all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
