The Spiritual Life of College Students

This major report provides the "key findings based on data collected in late summer
and early fall 2004 from more than 112,000 students attending a national sample of 236 colleges and universities. Students responded to a six-page survey that queried their backgrounds, educational and occupational aspirations, and values and beliefs with respect to spiritual and religious matters. The study reveals that today’s college students have very high levels of spiritual interest and involvement. Many are actively engaged in a spiritual quest and in
exploring the meaning and purpose of life. They are also very engaged and involved in religion, reporting considerable commitment to their religious beliefs and practices."
