George Hebda ’27 has been recognized on the 2025 ALL IN Student Voting Honor Roll. This award recognizes students from colleges and universities across the country who worked on nonpartisan civic engagement efforts to increase college student voter participation. 

A political science, international relations, and English major, Hebda is active with political and civic engagement. Off campus, Hebda traveled with faculty and students to the 2024 New Hampshire primary election in January 2024, and saw the 2024 campaign cycle through by road-tripping across Pennsylvania with faculty and students to experience the final weekend of campaigning in November. He also volunteered as part of the Pennsylvania College Exit Poll Project on Election Day 2024, gathering data as voters left the polls at Stetser Elementary. 

On campus, Hebda co-presented “Pennsylvania 2024: The Keystone State’s Pivotal Role in the Presidential Election,” at the 2025 High Impact Practices Fair, and acted as a discussion leader for several on-campus debate watches during the campaign cycle. He also serves as a pride ambassador, CREW Leader, and a member of the Widener Marching Band and Pep Band.

The ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge aims to empower colleges and universities to excel in nonpartisan student democratic engagement.
