Wilson said the results of the 2012 poll are particularly important because it includes oversamples of racial minority groups on campus and thus provides a better sense of racial-ethnic differences in opinions.
Questions asked in the poll include the following:
- Do students believe UD values diversity?
- Should UD’s campus be smoke free?
- Why do students choose to come to UD?
- What sustainability activities would students support for $25 a semester?
- What do students think about the Wings of Hope statue in Mentor’s Circle?
- At this stage, who are students supporting for the 2012 presidential election?
- Are students willing to donate money or time to UD when they graduate?
Wilson said other professors are invited to bring their classes to the event as a field experience. Those who would like to bring a class should RSVP to bluehenpoll@udel.edu so organizers can make sure there is seating available.
