This assessment is simply not true and not based on actual data coming out real research institutions
@ideas42 did full review of behavioral science around voter participation at colleges which you can view which provides much more nuanced view: http://www.ideas42.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/ideas42-Student-Voting-Brief.pdf …

Not mutually exclusive but I think the narrative that local leaders on campuses are "tilting at windmills" unless politicians get their act together is very damaging. We need to actually educate on WHY it's so important to vote even - especially! - when you dont like politicians.

There’s no narrative. Perhaps an unartful tweet I’m happy to rephrase. My point is that it would be a travesty if all of the good work done on college campuses isn’t paired w/ similar efforts by our political leaders to engage & empower young voters. Either way, I hope they vote.
