When the Michigan Alcoholism Screening Test (MAST) was administered to 245 students on two midwestern college campuses, 29% of the students on the small, private college campus and 19% on the large state university campus scored more than 4 points, indicating possible alcoholism. The authors hope that this study will stimulate further research on alcoholism among college students.
