Poll workers gather outside of the Ricketts Center, a local polling location in Pottstown, Pa.
Faculty and staff made their way to the Ricketts Center, the local polling station, to cast their vote for the 2024 presidential election. They show their patriotism through their action of voting for the America they want to see these next four years.
“I voted because I believe in democracy, that our voices should be heard, and that civic engagement is vital to being a good community member,” said Danna Singer, Instructor of Arts.
Other members of the Hill community volunteered their time at the polls.
“This is my 16th election serving as judge of elections in honor of my dad who did this for over 50 years,” said Director of Leadership Annual Giving Kathy Koller.
Voices of the Hill community were also heard, as students joined faculty in voting. Students in AP Government classes walked to Ricketts Center during their period to vote and see a polling center, as this is their first time participating in an election.
These classes were able to meet Democratic Rep. Madeline Dean, where they chatted and learned more about the importance of the election.
