It’s 2020, meaning all U.S. citizens are required by law to submit their information for the Census. Filling out the Census helps the government allocate funds for schools of all levels and determine how many representatives in Congress each state gets. When filling out the Census, be sure to use the address that you have lived at for the majority of the past year. For most GVSU students, this means you should use your Allendale or Grand Rapids address as opposed to your hometown address.
