Kansas Jayhawks student athletes will have November the third off to allow players and staff the opportunity to vote.

Every election is important, and this year’s is no different. For once, it seems like the NCAA is actually doing something positive in encouraging schools to give their student athletes the November 3rd Election Day off. The Kansas Jayhawks will be one of many groups of athletes given the day off in order to go vote.

This is a good move by athletic director Jeff Long and the KU Athletics Department.
