The poll (see accompanying article), conducted for this magazine by Ernest Cline, Inc. elicited the opinions of our young people on some of today’s most pressing issues. More than two thousand students in thirty colleges throughout New York, California and the Middle West took part in the sampling, which was scientifically designed to form a representative profile of American youth as a whole.

The actual poll contained several hundred questions, six of the most representative of which have been reprinted below, along with brief analyses of their results.
