...Complicating the picture are the rigorous ID requirements for voter registering by mail, a problem that disproportionately affects college students. If the election office can’t contact the voter issuing a “flagged” application, he is either not added to the rolls (in states like Florida and Iowa) or has to vote by provisional ballot.

I taught for years in Ireland in big lecture groups, and here a writing class was 12 or 14 people. I also enjoyed doing the lectures because I was bringing news of British and Irish poets. I felt I was doing my own culture over there some service here...
