The State Hornet, the State University student newspaper, conducted a survey by asking students a series of questions. The survey was conducted at noon in front of the University Union and involved 450 students out of a student body of 26,000. The interviewers were careful to get a sample with a racial, sexual, and age breakdown similar to that of the university as a whole. In the survey, 70 percent of the students interviewed said they opposed mixing sexes on the same floor of the dormitories. The newspaper presented the results of its survey in an article headlined "Majority of Student Body Opposes Mixing Sexes on Same Floor of Dorms."
