CAUCUS SURVEY
In spite of the fact that college students will be on semester break during the unprecedented early Jan. 3 Iowa caucuses, a survey this month by an Iowa State University sociology class found that among 2,185 ISU students, 73 percent were already registered to vote, and 58 percent of those registered students intended to participate in the caucuses.
