"What are collegiate views on the elections, desegregation and the problem of Red China? Are fraternities and compulsory ROTC losing at gaining ground with today's campus students? Do the majority take an interest in public affairs?" To find the answers to these and other questions, college editors across the United States were polled recently by New York University's communications periodical, "News Workshop." Forty-five responded from all types of institutions—fifteen from the Northeast, eight from the South and eleven each from the West and Mid-west. If an ideological pattern exists among college students today, it was not revealed by the replies.
