    Prairie View A&M University students walked out of class and marched to the polling station, chanting, "Go vote!" Students there recently won a lawsuit allowing them to vote early and to vote at the student center on campus. https://abcn.ws/2DpP5fe pic.twitter.com/XNVl51IEbF

        Voting after class would have been the responsible thing to do.

        Joining together with their fellow students to make a statement about the power youth voting sounds pretty responsible to me. Also, sorry you don’t remember what it’s like to be young and alive and wanting to be a part of something magical.

        You are taking a personal shot at me bc I support students' right to vote?! LOL My colleagues feel the same way. There's nothing in a classroom that can't be replicated later, but they only have one chance to vote in this election. Shame on you.

        I would think you would want to teach the students to be responsible...I went to vote after I dropped the kid off at school and told my boss I would be running late...responsible..its great that they are voting but walking out for something you have 12 hours to do is wrong

        Voting is responsible! It's about their future! Students can and should express themselves - especially when they belong to groups that have been historically and CURRENTLY suppressed from voting. Get off your moral high horse and look at the big picture.

        I thought the article said they had early voting on campus and voting at their student center. No moral high ground just an adult like yourself...did you walk out to vote???early voting is for 2 weeks then you have 12 hours...if you cannot get it done that is lazy not suppression

        As a college professor, I wholly support ditching class to vote. Some things are just more important and meaningful - especially right now :)

        They asked for extra credit and a poli sci professor I know offered it. But I told them there's no extra credit in life and that voting is their responsibility and duty :)

        That's a shame. I thought Pizza Polls would do a better job at getting out there quicker!
