The Lou Frey Institute for Politics & Government at the University of Central Florida was founded in January 2003 as a nonpartisan foundation that fosters civic education primarily for college and high school students but also for the general public. The Institute promotes informed discussion of issues from diverse viewpoints, encourages participation in the political process, and supports research on politics and policy. Through its programs, the Lou Frey Institute aims to engage students, faculty, university staff, and community partners in academic learning and civic participation. These programs include biannual symposia and an essay contest for high school and college students to win a scholarship to attend a Central Florida college or university. A Director manages the Institute under a Board of Directors.
