Likewise, their views on civil rights and tolerance of minority groups have "worn thin," according to a poll by Campus Voice, a magazine published by the 13-30 Corporation of Knoxville, Tennessee and distributed free on the UNC-CH campus earlier this fall. Campus Voice says that "more than 80 percent of the men and 58 percent of the women polled on this topic said ’enough’ to news about women’s rights." The pollsters also write, "Homosexual ity is another issue many students have heard enough about, according to 89 per cent of the men and 78 percent of the women who touched on this subject." Campus Voice says other things not “in" on college campuses are the complete preppy, cowboy boots, running shoes, and bandanas. The magazine presents a response by Virginia Apuzzo, executive director of the National Gay Task Force. Apuzzo is quoted as saying, "If young people are losing the capacity to care about the rights of others, the country is in trouble. They will have only themselves to blame should their own rights become threatened, as history suggests is always possible."
