Many college students say there is a lack of enthusiasm for this presidential election because the candidates are not addressing issues that are important to them, like college affordability, grants and loans. Asha Davis, a senior at Temple, was trying to energize younger citizens on the importance of voting. "I have heard a lot of people say well they don’t care about us any way,” Davis says, “and I’m like well, the healthcare bill, and any job policies that come out, the economy changes, all of those things do affect you."
