Beginning next month, some CU Boulder students could win $5 in campus cash by completing a survey that tests their civics knowledge.
The survey will run from Jan. 6鈥�21 among a selected sample of first-year CU Boulder students. The students will, during that time, receive an email linking them to the survey, which asks questions about American government, the U.S. Constitution and the foundations of the American political system.
The survey, requested by the CU Board of Regents, will help the campuses implement certificate programs in civics beginning in the spring of 2020 and make further enhancements in civics education on each campus.
鈥淲e encourage all CU Boulder students contacted for the survey to participate,鈥� said CU Boulder Provost Russell Moore. 鈥淔inding new ways to revitalize civic engagement among CU students starts with measuring how much students know about the basics of government and the American political system.鈥�
