On “The Spot Podcast,” a BYU-Idaho Radio podcast, students talk about voting in the upcoming election.
On November 5, 2024 Americans will vote for the next President of the United States. While this news draws many different reactions across America, it’s important to know how to vote and what goes into voting.
“In my own opinion, each person can make a huge difference because as they are thinking about what they want for their country and how they want to live their life, if their specific ballot makes a difference in how they perceive or how they feel about the leader, I think that's what is most important,” said The Spot host Savannah McCauley. “If you elected the person that is in office, you can say, hey, I'm the person … who had control over getting that person in office.”
It’s also important to know when to register and the options for voting. Most students on BYU Idaho’s campus are out of state, so how do they vote?
First, it’s important to register for your state. States have a government website for voter registration where you can see your registration status. The last day to register online is October 11.
Second, for those who live outside of their state, they can register to vote absentee. Their absentee ballot is sent through the mail where voters can fill out the information and send it back.
For those living in Idaho, you can go to voteidaho.gov for registration and voter updates. Listen to The Spot Podcast for more information on voting and staying informed on current issues.
Transcript
Savannah VO: This is the spot a BYU Idaho Radio production where we talk about what you're talking about at BYU Idaho. The views and opinions of this podcast are not that of BYU Idaho Radio or the university, and are solely the opinions of the hosts.
Savannah VO: Today's hosts are
Megan VO: Megan Tomsik
Savannah VO: Savannah McCauley
Cody VO: Cody Miller
Jesse VO: Jesse Richens.
Savannah VO: And today, we're talking about preparing for the election and knowing what we need to do in order to vote.
Savannah VO: We've got a few little spot takes, is what we like to call it, kind of our own. Each one of us have a little hot take that we'd like to read or talk about. that we have opinions on the election. So, Megan, what was yours?
Megan VO: So I personally find it hard to believe that we. It's. Why do we need to register to vote? Is it really necessary? I don't see why it matters if one person doesn't send in their ballot. And what difference does that make? You know, I haven't received a lot of information.
Savannah VO: So, each difference, each person, in my own opinion, each person can make a huge difference because as they are thinking about what they want for their country and how they want to live their life, if their specific ballot makes a difference in how they perceive or how they feel about the, leader, I think that's what is most important. If you elected the person that is in office, you can say, hey, I'm the person who I'm one of those people who had control over getting that person in office. I helped us get this leader in office. You can say that if you've registered and you voted and you voted for that person. That's that's my own opinion on that specific thing.
Jesse VO: Yeah. No, I agree with you, Savannah. I think, there's a certain feeling, knowing that you've affected an election in some way. and so that's why I agree with you. Why it's important to register to vote. That's what I think.
Cody VO: My little spot take is this. I believe that voting has more influence than most people think, because you vote for more than just the president and vice president. And I honestly think that the state elections are just as more important, if not more important than the presidential election. Because when we vote for our state representatives, they in turn vote for the president through representation through the Electoral College. So I think you should pay attention to your states more often than not.
Savannah VO: And, Cody, do we vote for a state representatives at the exact same time as we vote for the national candidates?
Cody VO: It depends on the different election cycles, honestly. Such as, for example, this year we're going to be not only voting for the president and the vice president, but we're also going to be voting for all 435 representatives of the House of Representatives this year. So if you want your state representatives to win, well, go out and vote.
Savannah VO: My little spot take is make sure you do your research on your candidates. And I know a lot of people are like, well, I already know what side I'm on, so why? Why do I need to do that? Because each candidate is very different. As you can look at the candidates we have this year. I'm not as familiar with the independents. but I do know that some of them have very different, policies than what side they're on. So you need to be more paying attention and not just voting one or the other or independent, just because that's what you've always done. Make sure to do research on each candidate and find your sources, that are actually relevant. And people that are that you can trust. Watch people that know what they're talking about.
Megan VO: No, I completely agree. I used to let myself be influenced by just what other people said. I didn't want to do the research. I thought that wouldn't be helpful. But now that I realize just how important these policies are and how it will affect my life and the life of my future family, it's important that I understand what it is that I'm voting for, not just by title or I guess, like you said, what I've always done. And so, yeah.
Jesse VO: Yeah, I totally agree. It is super important to do research. Especially for I mean, if you have a family, you do it the research for your family, kind of just like you were saying. And, or for yourself, like personal reasons, a candidate could agree with something that you agree with, but they could also disagree with something that's huge In your opinion. So, and I'm pretty sure, pretty sure the church has come out and talked about things like this. And, they've said, vote prayerfully and, vote for what would be best for you and your family. My spot take is go out and vote early. I know we're going to talk about this later, but I think it is a huge deal. I understand there's a lot of, like, cultural reasons to go out and vote on the day. November 5th, election Day. Obviously, you know, it's it's a big deal, but, it's very, if you want a certain party to win, if, you go out and vote early, it kind of helps them understand where they're at. And, sorry if I'm taking away time from the later point, but, but, yeah, it'll help if you go out and vote early that's my take.
Savannah VO: I 100% agree, Jesse. Actually, the first thing we wanted to talk about was voter registration. And actually voting early is huge with absentee ballots. And if you don't know what an absentee ballot is, basically us college students are are very much the big part of absentee ballots. So what that means is if you live in a state that you don't currently have in,
Cody VO: Residence a, a residency
Savannah VO: Yes, a residency in. And so, for example, I have an ID from Virginia and my residency is technically in Virginia, even though I'm a student currently at BYU Idaho and I live in Idaho, and I've been here for two years. I still need to register to vote through Virginia, which means I need to register as an absentee voter. And that means that they send in the mail all of the things that I need so that I can vote. And then I send back through the mail my vote. That's what an absentee voter is. And if you need to do that and register as an absentee voter, there are different ways of doing that per state.
Cody VO: Absentee voting is considered extremely important because a lot of people are not living within their State residence, such as college students, for example. Especially here at BYU Idaho. But it can happen almost anywhere. Just be sure to register. But if you're from Idaho and you're registered in Idaho, you don't need to do this. But in case if you're moving anywhere else, please do it. Your vote counts. Your vote matters.
Savannah VO: And on top of that, we do need to mention registration deadlines. And if you are going to be an absentee voter the day after this episode is released on October 11th is the final day that you can register as an absentee voter. So, it is very, very important by tomorrow if you're listening to this right when it releases by tomorrow, make sure to register to vote if you're going to need to vote as an absentee voter. A couple other deadlines. If you're registering to vote online, to vote online, then that's also October 11th. So make sure that you're registered to vote. Then if you're in-person voting, you can register on Election Day. I would suggest not doing that. but, because it just adds to the craziness. But, you can and then if you're in person during early voting, like Jesse was talking about earlier, October 21st through the November 1st, you can do your registration and early voting through that week.
Jesse VO: Yeah, it's just super important to get out there. And just like Cody said, your vote counts. It really does. it's it's a right that's been given to us as the American, people. So we need to get out and do that for sure.
Megan VO: When we were looking at several different websites and there were so many to choose from, you can just use Google as your best resource, but one that we found that we really liked and we wanted to mention to you guys was I think it's vote idaho.gov. I'll say that again. Vote idaho.gov. And that's it has information. let's see. Oh yeah. So it tells you how to register to vote whether you're doing it online or like we talked about mailing in a registration form. And they have links for that here as well. And then they have there's so many links. You guys just have to go and check this out. It tells you when you can vote in person and where you could go to do that and what you need to register, which is super important, like a photo ID, a proof of residence and so on, that’s if you are voting as a resident of Idaho and then it goes on to say who can register in Idaho and gives you information about where to go to update your registration, like if you haven't voted in the past four years, you got to go and update that, which is super important. I didn't know that until I started doing research for this. And it talks about how to change your party affiliation. There's so many things that you can go and talk about. And so out of all of the links that we've been talking about so far before, we came here for this episode today. vote idaho.gov would be my biggest recommendation, but I don't know what the church has for like a separate websites and voting and such.
Jesse VO: Yeah, they have just a couple, like statements online on the on the ChurchofJesusChrist.org page and I'm sure with the upcoming election, they'll release a statement they do every election year. I've noticed, and I mean, I guess to go a little bit further into that. The church is nonpartisan. They don't,um, they believe in political neutrality as, a religion. they don't suggest that you know, their members vote Republican or vote Democrat or, even I was reading into it even more, once you're an Area 70 and above in the church, you aren't allowed to like, participate in campaigns or endorse, political figures, which was very interesting. But it makes sense because then, you know, people would think like, oh, the churches, you know, supporting this party or the other. So basically, I'm just gonna read right from the website, something that the church does encourage says it encourages its members to play role as responsible citizens in their communities, including becoming informed about issues, voting in elections, participating governance process, and seeking for elected, appointed or voluntary office. So it even does like suggest like, oh, hey, if you want to go to be a political figure, you can but I like how it said like be informed. The church wants to make sure that we are keeping up to date and like, just how we talked about earlier. Just just stay informed.
Savannah VO: And I agree with that. What the church is saying. Be informed. We were talking a little bit about, knowing knowing the candidates and knowing who you feel is best to lead our country. And actually, Cody Miller right here actually got to talk to several students on campus about the policies that matter the most to them and the things that they had, that were very passionate for them. So let's hear a little bit about what they had to say. in, Cody's Man on the Street interviews
Cody VO: All right. Well, for the most part, a lot of the people that I got, man on the street interviews with his predominantly here at the Manwaring Center. So if you want to be a part of the podcast, come here at the Manwaring Center. But for the most part, a lot of the people were concerned about the future of America and about the how the political leaders are going to represent the best in the best of the people's interests here. Some people were talking about, the economy, other people were talking about the housing market. and then, and then a dear young lady was worried about how if Covid 19 comes back again, in which we hope it doesn't. But, that's just me, but, about how our leaders are going to respond to another, another, pandemic like that ever again. And so people are just concerned about the future of America, and which is a very valid concern. But what do you guys think?
Jesse VO: Yeah, I think these are very valid issues. And I think probably just about every student on this campus thinks about like, economics and, you know, all these things. I think it's very important. And that's why we need to stay informed about the candidates and, decide which one of these issues is most important to you, whether, again, it be economics or, like housing or, you know, anything like that. and then looking and digging deep into the candidates to find out which one, it is you want to vote for. These are very important issues. And, we, we do want to know how they're going to be handled.
Savannah VO: I know one of those students talked about safety in schools because she has friends that work in schools and kids. and that's definitely a huge issue right now. And just so you know, each candidate has their own way of addressing that. Make sure to look at their platforms and know exactly what they want to do to address the safety in our schools. That's another thing I felt like was very important that the student had mentioned. And in one of the interviews, I felt like it was important to mention that also in the podcast episode as well. Next, we want to talk a little bit about who's running. So of course, we know about Kamala and we know about Donald Trump. there is also independent independents available, on the ballots as well. And we're going to open that up right now and tell you who's on that.
Savannah VO: So, there are some independents on the ballot. We have Jill Stein and Chase Oliver. and you can find some of their policies on on the websites with, where you can vote, you can see the policies on their pages, as well as Kamala and Donald Trump's, so you can see what they are supporting and the things that they are talking about and, and their politics and their policies.
Megan VO: One website that you hear I'm talking about links for this episode today. One website that I found really beneficial, especially for finding out information about the policies and the candidates and making sure that it was nonpartisan. was l w v dot org lw v.org. It's the League of Women Voters. And so it's a nonpartisan, website that works on protecting and expanding voting rights, ensuring that everybody has advocacy and education at the local, state and national levels. And so this website gave a lot of good content about, what the candidates were talking about, how that would apply to different locations of the country and how that would apply to different people of different ages. And I like to that it didn't, push me to believe one way or the other. I liked that. It's like when we say the word over and over again, nonpartisan. And that was really appreciated for me in order to find what I felt was right for me and and my family in my situation.
Savannah VO: So we talk about, a little bit about reliable resources. How do we find reliable resources?
Jesse VO: It can be tough. unfortunately, in this day and age, I feel like a lot of, legacy media stations, have started leaning one way or the other, which makes it very hard to vote, because if for some reason, you know, your parents have just watched a certain news station your whole life and you just think that's what you're going to watch. Unfortunately, sometimes you're going to get some biased news, whether it be Fox News, CNN, that's pretty unfortunate. So it can be hard to find. I might be stealing this from you, Savannah, but I have found quite a few, resources on TikTok. I know that might sound crazy, but you can find independent, kind of like news places on TikTok. One that I like to watch is Dylan Page. he's he's kind of fun. He's he's very, very popular. he hasn't been getting too much into politics, though, because he is not from the United States. but I do like to look to TikTok and try to find the independent. you know, people on there who are usually nonpartisan, but that's where I like to find my resources.
Cody VO: There is more than one way in order to do research. And often one of the best ways to fact check is to look up an article that you see on Fox or CNN or any of those platforms, and then you go to the opposite side of the political spectrum, which they are leaning towards, and see the same exact story. Then you compare notes between the articles. That way you can get the most bang for your buck, you get the most information that you can discern from it, the kind of consensus that they both agree on, and just get an overall more whole picture of the story. And I feel like in this world that's becoming more divided than ever. Unfortunately, we need to consider the both sides of the political spectrum in order for us to get the whole picture. Because if we lean to one way or the other, we won't get the full picture. And unfortunately, in my opinion, that makes us more radical and that makes it a lot more dangerous.
Savannah VO: I agree with you there, Cody. I think, a lot of times people want to make it about sides. People want to make it about I'm here or I'm there. But really what we need to do is be informed, like the church is saying, be informed about all of the candidates and understanding who is best for us. I Jesse was talking a little bit about independent journalists, and independent journalists on TikTok are my favorite to watch.Because they and when we say independent journalists, we don't mean they are specifically towards independents. but what we mean is they are on their own doing their own research, but they are giving you the research that they found in a way that's bipartisan, so that you understand what's going on in the world without having to worry about them being on one side or the other. They're just giving you the information. and that's where I found a lot of my reliable resources have been on TikTok. so we'll see how things go with the TikTok ban in January. Hopefully we can come to a good conclusion there. but I do love using it as of right now as, one of my, main resources for news and understanding what's going on in the election right now.
Megan VO: And it's like you said, and it's like our slogan here at the radio station, be informed, be inspired, BYU Idaho radio. We want people to find that good information and be inspired to take action with that information. Sure, you can research all you want, but if you don't do anything about it, then it doesn't make a difference. And so it's being confident in your research to take action. And in this case, making sure you go and register to vote and submit your ballot.
Savannah VO: So, we talked a little bit about TikTok. there are several ways through social media that we can actually find these independent journalists. Is there any other social media platform that you guys use to get some of your news from?
Cody VO: Well, predominantly one of my favorite platforms. Unfortunately, I'm a little too addicted to it is YouTube. But then again, YouTube in a way also has its own, issues and stuff. But you can also have some major benefits as well when you're looking up both sides of the story. each of the major news outlets from the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Fox, CNN, NBC, ABC, so forth all have YouTube pages that are linked directly to their articles as well, and they use YouTube as a base format as well for their videos. So but you got to be very careful because you got to look on both sides of the spectrum, because if you don't, your YouTube feed will automatically go towards one side or the other. But that's just how the YouTube algorithm is used to correlate. So if you look up on both things, then the YouTube algorithm should incorporate both of them at the same time. So just do with that what you will. Please look up on both sides.
Jesse VO: Yeah. And I think just to go off Savannah again I think finding like maybe not necessarily nonpartisan, but people who just deliver the news and that's it. again, some media companies these days, I think there's a little bit of an agenda on, multiple, media sites, which creates confusion and radicalism, as Cody was saying as well. So try to find those, like, again, as Savannah said, independent, not registered independent voters, but just independent journalists who, just deliver the news, how journalists are supposed to deliver the news, just straightforward and exactly how it was said.
Savannah VO: There's one independent one. You mentioned one. What was his name? Dylan. Paige. There's another one that I like to watch. Her name is News Girl, and she has a roundup as well. So you can actually, sign up for her little roundup, which is, just an email that she sends us an email blast with, your news and just things that are going on in the world right now. and she keeps everything up to date for all the stuff that you need to know. So it's really cool. She can send that to your email every single day, or I think it's at least once a week, but usually multiple times a week. So, it's a really good way of finding news.
Cody VO: Two other people I found on YouTube that I do news as well, ironically and unironically are specifically this, these people. There's this YouTuber by the name of Good News Girl who basically tells all about the article or about the articles that you just don't read on major news sites about good things that are happening in everyday humanity. And basically it just covers that in a very wholesome format that you won't be able to see anywhere else. And another one, ironically, his name is Habitual Line Crosser. Now, a warning this guy swears a lot, so take it with what you will. But the guy goes around and he makes, satire commentary, videos about the news and about how countries or reactions of countries react to it. And it's supposed to be funny unironically, but when he gets serious, it really gets serious. And I really like how sometimes he addresses some of the more serious topics with a less than lighthearted approach. But overall he's a pretty good one too. But warning you, he swears quite a bit. A lot. So take with that. What you. Will, okay.
Megan VO: That reminds something that you said, Cody reminds me how there are people outside of this country that are so invested in our election and the process, and I feel like Savannah I feel like you have some commentary on this, but I think it's so interesting.
Savannah VO: Yeah, actually, on TikTok, there's a lot of people that are from other countries that will just get really involved in the United States, national election. And it's really cool to see that they're just like, oh my goodness. Like they're just more up to date than even some Americans I've seen on what's going on. And it's really amazing to see all these cultures really understanding and trying to understand us as a culture. And and it shows how important us trying to figure out the right leader is because other countries are watching. They're seeing us as an example. They're watching what we're doing, and we need to make sure that we are choosing a leader that is able to work with other countries and able to talk to them, and, and, be open to them, asking them questions and being there for them. So that's something that's important to me as just somebody who can, who can talk to other people from countries and, and help other countries, and help them see what's going on in our country in a, in a great way. So that's super important. how one thing we talked about, we had all these independent journalists and all these people that we're talking about, how do we check whether they're fake news or they're just trying to hype people up? What do you guys do in that specific scenario?
Megan VO: There is actually it's so it's an unoriginal name, but there is a website called Fact Check Dawg. That's literally all it's called FactCheck.org. So it does exactly what you think it does. And it checks the accuracy of what the candidates, are saying, statements that they've made. It provides an unbiased analysis and context, which I really appreciate, because sometimes you hear things but you don't know in what context they were said, what was being talked about. And so this website is really beneficial. And I was taking a look at it just just a moment ago. it's kind of like, it almost seems like a news website, but it's it's not it's not associated with any specific company. It just gives articles from just about both candidates, specifically the presidential affiliated, party candidates. I haven't seen anything about independents, but, talking about Kamala and Trump's standing and where they got their information from. So.
Jesse VO: Yeah, I think, you mentioned fact checking. So, I immediately thought about, X or formerly known as Twitter. I know Elon Musk has set up a pretty good, like, fact checking, system on his platform. I've even not. I think he got fact checked once. It was pretty funny. So, they're pretty, they will check the facts on X, which is which is fantastic. So if you get your news from X, which is also I've gone there quite a bit for some, information on the polls and the, the election and everything. X can be a good place as well. it's been promoted as a free speech platform and, obviously fact checker platform. So.
Savannah VO: I love that one thing I actually like to do, and Cody mentioned this earlier, is cross like looking at a lot of different people, a lot of different resources because I, I may watch News Girl, but maybe she's not as accurate as the one that you were watching. Jonathan Page. Dylan. Dylan page. Dylan page. Sorry. Jonathan Page I think is a different person who's not who's not a news person. So, anyway, Dylan Page, so if I were to look at both of them and cross-check their facts already, I'm already going to have more accurate information because I know they both said this. Each one of them said something different here. Let's figure it out kind of thing. So that's how I like to fact check a little bit. and speaking of facts, I actually want to check the audience and your guys's knowledge about what's going on in the election. These are super easy questions, but if you're not paying attention, then they're not. So. So when did Kamala Harris officially join the race? And I've got, you know, multiple choice here. Or we can just do it without multiple choice. What do you think?
Jesse VO: We better do multiple choice.
Cody VO: let's do multiple choice.
Jesse VO: Multiple choice.
Megan VO: Yes, please.
Savannah VO: All right. So, Kamala, she did she join May 19th, June 25th, July 20th 1st or August 5th. All 2024.
Cody VO: I think July 21st.
Megan VO: I was thinking the same. I know it's not August. That's all. That's all I know.
Jesse VO: Yeah, I'm going to say July 21st as well.
Savannah VO: You guys didn't think it was August, but it was August, August 5th. She joined very late. because if you remember, President Biden was running, as the Democratic, party member for a long time. She actually joined August 5th. Can you believe that with how much she's been doing this crazy. Next. When did Donald Trump officially join the race? May 2nd, June 13th, July 15th and August 1st.
Cody VO: I know that he was early on, one of the main people behind it and stuff. So I'm going to say the earliest date that's on there.
Jesse VO: Yes, same here May 2nd would be my guess.
Megan VO: I don't even, I'd be guessing completely. I don't, you know what just to be different, I'll say what the second one was.
Savannah VO: So, July 15th was his official, officially joining the race. But of course, a lot of people knew he wanted to join before that. But officially, July 15th was the date. All right. In the next two, who is the vice presidential running mate for Kamala Harris?
Cody VO: I would say it would be the governor of Minnesota. Tim Walz.
Jesse VO: Well, that was pretty confident. So, Tim Walz
Megan VO: I would say so. Yeah. Cody, you got this.
Savannah VO: Yes. Tim Walz is the correct answer there. and we have these answers as well. We'll have them on our social media page post as well. So you'll be able to see them and then who's the vice presidential running mate for Donald Trump?
Megan VO: JD Vance
Savannah VO: JD Vance is correct. So, and JD Vance, Cody, can you tell us a little bit about him as well?
Cody VO: JD Vance is was a military veteran, but he also serves currently as the, as one of the senators for the state of Ohio as well. The guy's got a decent track record for the most part, and I can see why Trump has selected him.
Savannah VO: I also really enjoyed Tim Walz, too. I think he's just he feels like such a lovable father. Like, I don't know, there's just something about him. I think he's just a sweetheart and he's got a good track record in Minnesota as well. So great candidate.
Megan VO: That's what I love about this election. Specifically, it feels like for each candidate and their associated representatives, like it just feels like we're getting to know so much more about them and who they are outside of the politician, like the politician in them. And so I feel like that's made it a lot easier for me to get to know them and find out really who I want to represent me and my beliefs.
Cody VO: Well, with this upcoming election thing, I personally think that we should just always just remain to stay informed more or less because we need we need to be informed now more than ever. And I even though a lot of us come from different political sides, but still, I personally believe that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints is still the true church. And I agree with them being on the neutral stance for the most part. And, that good example is that the church does not allow any of their meeting houses for any kind of political convention or any kind of political theater or scene, for good reason. And I just appreciate the church in that aspect, because the church encourages neutrality, but also the church encourages people to learn more, and that's what makes it better than a lot of other organizations who don't want people to do their own research.
Savannah VO: Thank you. Cody. And I actually want to kind of wrap up the episode a little bit here and talk about how to become not as overwhelmed by all of this information. And I think one thing that helps me is staying in tune with the campus and what's going on on campus with, in regards to keeping myself up to date with the election and a couple of things we have on campus that you can do that with is BYU Idaho Radio. Of course, we got to mention us. You can find a lot of news through us. on KBYI 94.3 FM, and we have the morning edition from 5 a.m. to 8 a.m. every single weekday morning. And an afternoon show called All Things Considered from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m.. And both of those shows are designed to help you stay up to date on local, national and worldwide news, including elections and and what's going on with the election. And they will help you get to know what's going on in the election and provide facts about the candidates in both national and local elections. So you'll get to know what's going on around you here in Idaho and what's going on nationally. You can also follow the school's newspaper, The Scroll. Did you know we have a newspaper? It's a whole thing. It's wonderful. So, the scroll is also another thing that you can look up here on campus. And they have news topics and of course things about the upcoming election. So that keeps me a little calm, knowing that there's people around me helping me understand what's going on. not only in Idaho, but also nationally. super, super helpful resources. And we did have a little bit of a spotlight on what's coming on or going on around campus. So what are some things coming up?
Megan VO: So this is super cool. So by the time that you'll be listening to this episode and be able to, once we have it on the air, this is from October 9th to the 11th. So depending on when you're listening, it's today and tomorrow and it's the Red cross blood drive. And I did not know that we did this on campus, which I think is so cool. And so it's from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the BYU I Center courts. So wherever we have devotional, there's the big like courts right next door so that's where it'll be taking place. And you can visit redcrossblood.org and search using our zip code 83460 to sign up for a time. So you go to that website and that's where you would schedule your appointment, I guess you could say, and using that zip code 83460 to be able to go in and donate blood. It's really cool to support.
Savannah VO: Thank you for mentioning that specific zip code, because that one is the one that's here on campus. I know it sounds kind of confusing, but Rexburg has two zip codes, so try to use the right 83460 when you're going to sign up for that blood drive. Thank you for informing us on that.
