The Elon community will gather to watch President Joe Biden give his State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday, Feb. 7 at 9 p.m. in the Moseley Center first floor.

The State of the Union is a communication between the President and Congress in which the chief executive reports on the current conditions of the United States and provides policy proposals for the upcoming legislative year.

The Active Citizen Series is designed to cultivate the next generation of informed leaders who will help strengthen communities and shape our democracy. This event will allow students to gain a deeper understanding of how government works and to develop the necessary skills to engage in civil discourse across political divides.

The event is sponsored by the Elon Political Engagement Work Group, Elon Votes!, Kernodle Center for Civic Life and Council on Civic Engagement.
