Millennials have mixed feelings about participating in politics By Lindsay Weber | Chicago Tribune September 27, 2016
![Grace Vargas, a freshman from Chicago studying anthropology, writes down information after talking with a student while canvassing for Bernie Sanders on March 6 on the 15th floor of Mae Smith. Members of the campaign went door to door in the building informing students about early voting options and how to register to vote. Vargas became involved with the local campaign early and now assists in organizing other students. "At our age we are still learning a lot," Vargas said. "People think [politics] is one of those things you can slide into once you get older, but it is important now."
