There's been a great deal of attention paid by political candidates to the rising influence of college students in the electorate. Barak Obama has been quick to point out that his early victory in Iowa was due in large part to the young voters who turned out in support of him.
Today is affectionately known as Super Tuesday in the political world. That's because there are so many state caucuses and primaries that are being held around the country today. Twenty-four states. For those of you keeping score at home...that's pretty close to half of the United States.
College Students Rule! would like to know: As a college student, are you interested, involved, actively participating in the political process?
Recent demographic reports would say that this generation is slightly apathetic (and I'm being kind) when it comes to voting and politics. Is Iowa just a blip, an anomaly when it comes to the involvement of college students?
