They had fielded this study twice before, and were in the midst of their third survey. We looked at the 85 or so pages of questions asked by Notre Dame. They asked about beliefs and attitudes, priorities, and practices on a wide array of topics. So many, in fact, that we had to group them. As we saw the data unfold, seven groupings emerged: Academic Prepa­ ration, Outlook on Life, Christian Commitment, Christian Life, Conser­ vative and Traditional, Independent Thought, and Influence.
