2005 CSB/SJU Health Survey

Methodology:

An on-line survey was given to all CSB and SJU students during the two weeks prior to long weekend (Feb. 3-16) in the spring semester 2005.  Of the 3834 students invited to participate, 795 usable surveys were collected, for a response rate of 20.7% (at the 95% confidence interval, we have a + 4%). The small sample is a limitation of the study, however, the sample is reflective of the population in most key demographic variables.
