NASPA Journal, v40 n3 Spr 2003
Undergraduates at three institutions were surveyed following the 1996 (n = 482) and 2000 (n = 467) elections to assess civic attitudes and participation. Results revealed moderate and decreasing levels of cynicism and apathy; increasing optimism; and significant relationships between civic attitudes, service participation, and political participation.
