America's gifted youth
frown on sex, dope

NEW YORK (AP) - Most of Amer-
ica's highest-achieving high school
students say they have never had sex or
smoked pot, and they give President
;Reagan higher marks than he gets from
other Americans, according to a survey
released yesterday.
The 13th Annual Survey of High
'Achievers, published by "Who's Who
Among High School Students," showed
that the nation's most capable students
'tend to be conservative on many issues
&and are usually from happy, stable
homes-in keeping with past surveys.
"HAPPINESS at home is the main
thing," said Denise Parent, 17, a senior
at Columbus High School in Marshfield,
Wis. She plans a career in neurop-
sychology and is one of 23,000 students
who took part in the survey.
The survey found that 75 percent said
they have never had sex, but 50 percent
approve of premarital sex. Only 4 per-
cent said they used marijuana, com-
pared with 10 percent in the 1981 sur-
vey, and 21 percent in 1970. And 39 per-

cent favor legalized abortion, down
from 42 percent a year ago, and 70 per-
cent in 1970.
Reagan is apparently regarded far
more favorably by high-achieving
youngsters than by the general public.
Nearly 55 percent of the youngsters
surveyed say Reagan is doing a good or
excellent job with the economy, com-
pared with 33 percent in the November
Associated Press-NBC News poll of
American adults.
AND ON foreign policy, Reagan gets
a good or excellent rating from 56 per-
cent of the students surveyed - com-
pared with 36 percent in the AP-NBC
poll.
The group surveyed was selected
from among 363,000 students attending
public and private schools across the
country who were nominated by prin-
cipals or guidance counselors to be
listed in "Who's Who Among High
School Students." Students are not
charged a fee for being listed, nor do
they have to buy the book.

a run-off; that no one (of the three
choices) would get more than 50 per-
cent of the vote the first time."
Both McGuire and Korth said they
were surprised with the outcome of the
vote. "We were unhappily surprised
because we felt that from our surveys
that we would do much better," Korth
said.
PROF. JOHN Henderson, spokesman
for the Committee of, Concerned
Faculty - a group opposed to collective
bargaining - said he was surprised by
the wide margin of defeat. "I thought
we would win, but I didn't think it would
be as sizeable."
"I believe that the majority of the
faculty conceive of themselves as
professionals in their respective fields
of researchers and teachers and not as
employees," Henderson said.
"I think the majority also believe that
the last thing needed at a university is
more bureaucracy," he added.
MCGUIRE suggested that if the elec-
tion had been held a year ago, the out-
come might have been different.
Because of the year delay, the univer-
sity's 1981 financial crisis was not fresh
in the minds of faculty members. Since
that time, he added, administrators
have kept a low profile.
Another problem, McGuire said, is
that since May, 1981, when the elections
were first authorized, a number of
collective bargaining supporters left
the MSU faculty.
Finally, he said, the two groups were
at a disadvantage because they did not
have the support of faculty from
schools which have been exempt from
serious budget cuts-such as the
colleges of agriculture, business, and
engineering.
Both McGuire and Korth agreed the
role of the faculty in the decision-
making process is of greater concern to
MSU professors than salary increases.
"ESSENTIALLY, the basic issue is

rej ects union
what is the role of the faculty in the
university," McGuire said. "The salary
decision is one facet of a larger
problem."
Although the faculty does have some
input, its voice is not always heard, he
said. "What happens is the faculty
committee makes a recommendation
that the university can then do with it
what it wants," he explained. "We can
talk all we want but that talk is ineffec-
tive."
Although law prohibits another vote
from taking place for one year, Korth
said he is optimistic. "We've just got to
keep on trying."
