Religious convictions growing, survey says
KU students are beginning to take social relationships more seriously and are adopting stronger religious convictions, according to a survey conducted last month by the Campus Crusade for Christ.
Members of the KU chapter of the group conducted the survey during the last week in March to measure students' attitudes about themselves and their social surroundings. Doug is president of the group, said yesterday.
The survey was developed by Gallup Polls for college campuses, he said. It consists of 16 questions in three different areas - personal meaning, social relationships and religious significance.
Volunteers surveyed about 1,900 students on campus, Winkler said. They went to classrooms, some of which were empty. They set up a table in front of Wesson Hall.
"PEOPLE SEEMED TO take the survey pretty seriously." Winkler said. "In an anonymous situation, they feel they can be honest."
Shirley Bruye, a staff member at Campus Crusade for Christ, said, "I think there is a trend on the college that is being more open about beliefs."
Students seem to be becoming more conservative according to the way in which the questions were answered. Winkler said.
In the social relationships category, students were asked questions including whether marriage should be a permanent bond and what was more important to them in a social relationship — close friendship, personal intimacy or sexual gratification.
Winkler said 927 of the students surveyed indicated that personal intimacy was the most important in a relationship and that 1,485 students thought marriage should be a permanent bond.
In the personal meaning category, students were asked questions about how they viewed life and religious beliefs.
"People seem to be taking relationships more seriously," he said. "They think relationships can be tough, but there's got to be some commitment."
Winkler said 1,342 students indicated that they thought God was infinite and personal, and 1,170 students indicated to know God on a personal level.
Filmmaker to show controversial works
By KATHY FLANDERS Staff Reporter
Controversial filmmaker Emile de Antonio is scheduled to be on camps tomorrow through Tuesday in conjunction with a four-night showing of his documentary films.
Antonio studied at Columbia University and graduated from Harvard University. Before becoming a filmmaker, he worked as a longshoreman and a barge captain, taught English literature and philosophy and was an editor and impresario.
Four of his films are scheduled to be shown Sunday through Wednesday. The showings are free and open to the public.
"In the Year of the Pig," a documentary filmed at the height of U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, is scheduled to be shown at 2 p.m. Sunday in Alderson Audio-Techno Theater. The film is a collection of rare news footage, political propaganda, and anti-and pro-war speeches.
THE FILM “POINT of Order” is scheduled for 7 p.m. Monday in Alderson Auditorium. After the film, you are encouraged to answer questions about the film.
Antonio used footage of speeches by Ho Chi Minh, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Dean Rusk and John F. Kennedy in the history of the Vietnam War.
The documentary retells the Army-McCarthy hearings in the 1950s through television footage. The result shows the influence of the press on politics, during the 1950s and also today.
Tuesday's film, "The King of Prussia," also is scheduled for 7 p.m. in Alderson Auditorium. It tells the story of the 1800 anti-suffrage movement and subsequent trial of a radical pacifist group in Pennsylvania
Antonio will again speak and answer questions after the film.
The last film, "Painters Painting," is scheduled to be shown at 3 p.m. Wednesday in the auditorium of the Spencer Museum of Art.
The film examines the New York art world.
