Every semester, The Herald conducts a survey of the undergraduate student body on a number of issues. Some questions, such as approval of Ruth Simmons and UCS, frequently appear on the poll, while many of the others change each semester. This semester’s poll asked:
- Whether or not students would consider joining an ROTC program, at Brown or another school
- How many sexual partners students have had so far this semester
- What students think of their class sizes
- What students think of the number of admissions spots that are reserved for athletic recruits
- How well students think Ruth Simmons and UCS are doing their jobs
- How satisfied or dissatisfied students are with academic advising
- How students see their families’ wealth compared to that of the “average Brown student”
- How confident students are in getting a desirable job after graduation
- What electronic devices students own

Over the next couple weeks, we’ll be publishing a series of articles, each of which goes into depth about one specific poll question. More reasons to read The Herald every day!
