The NYT comes out in favor of making it easier for college students to vote. As Will Murray noted in his comments on my post about the college prof who made voting a course requirement, what stops people from voting is that it's a pain in the neck, so a rule that makes not voting more of a pain than voting has to be good. Along the same lines, anything that makes voting less of a pain to begin with has to be a step in the right direction. So while I may not agree with the Times when it makes a point of informing its readership that, yes, 13-year-olds can safely get nose jobs, the paper's not all bad.
