Higher Ed: KUT's Jennifer Stayon & Dr. Ed Burger - From Classroom To Voting Booth: Student Voting

The Nov. 6, 2018, midterm election is almost here. Despite low voter turnout among 18-29-year-olds in previous midterm years, polls this year indicate turnout in that age group could be much higher. In this episode of KUT's podcast "Higher Ed," Southwestern University President Dr. Ed Burger and KUT's Jennifer Stayton discuss what is driving college-aged voters to the polls; how to keep them engaged in future elections even when national politics are not so charged; and how students can use skills they have learned in the classroom to make up their own minds about how they want to vote.
