ondents were under the age of 21, falling between the ages of 18-21 years old. Eighty-five percent of the respondents were underclassmen and ninety-five percent resided on campus. When asked how many drinks the students consumed in one week nearly fifty-two percent answered less than two drinks per week. Seventy-three percent of students feel that this campus promotes drinking. Eighty-three percent of students feel other students drinking did not effect their ability to study. Sixty percent felt other students drinking did not interfere with their life. There were many significant results in the section on the effects of drinking (in general). Seventy-seven percent of students agree that drinking does enhance social activity. Seventy-four percent believe drinking to break the ice. Seventy four percent believe drinking gives people something to do.The results seem to show two significant findings. One, the amount that Bradley students report to drink each week, fifty percent drink 2 or less drinks per week, do not correlate with the response that seventy-three percent of respondents agree that this campus promotes drinking. The margin of error can not be computed, but it justifies further investigation. The surveys results may be skewed based on the age of the respondents. Another significant finding and possible error, as a result of the method used to collect the data, is the high numbers of students who seem to favor drinking in a social situation, yet consume two or less drinks per week.CONCLUSIONThe results were presumably what would be expected from a group-administered survey. The questions were not in depth, but did give direction for further study. A larger and more age-diversified study may help correct possible errors in this survey. The fact that ninety percent of students in the study resided on-campus may also have effected the campaign and should be checked for errors. The study was limited to answers provided, in majori...
