Alcohol

            
             RESEARCH QUESTION: How do Citrus students feel about drinking alcoholic beverages?.
             HYPOTHESIS: Because many people socially accept alcohol, I expect for college students to be very acceptable with the issue on alcohol and drinking alcohol.
             METHOD AND PROCEDURE: A written survey consisting of 11 questions was asked around the Citrus College campus on September 5, 2002. The people who responded to the survey were everyday Citrus College students. My group and I walked around the Citrus campus and asked other students we saw the 11 questions that we had come up with. As they answered the questions, we wrote down their responses.
