Campus Life

Black students have the highest levels of religious practice on America's campuses, according to a survey of 112,232 students at 236 colleges.

One-third of the black students polled said spiritual growth and following religious teachings are both essential, compared with fewer than one-fifth of the white and Asian students polled.

Black students reported higher levels of church attendance, prayer, and belief in God.
