Alcohol and Drug Use among CU-Boulder Undergraduates
College Alcohol Study: CU-Boulder 2004 Survey Results
|
The 2004 College Alcohol Study (CAS) surveys results for the Boulder campus are presented below. They are not
presented with the other survey years' data, because the 33% response rate for 2004 was substantially lower than that
of other years and is too low to reliably make inferences from these data or to make comparisons to other years.
For results from other years in which the CAS survey was administered, see the
table of CU-Boulder 1993-2005 results and corresponding plots.

RR = response rate; adjusted for undeliverable surveys
a Harvard uses two different weighting schemes. One of these is concerned with trends over time and is intended to reduce the likelihood
that year-to-year differences in statistics are a function of the demographic characteristics of the sample, rather than actual differences.
The other weighting scheme adjusts for differential sampling fractions across categories of sex, age and race/ethnicity.
1 Unless otherwise noted, these figures reflect students' experiences during the past year.
