A Buckley Institute survey of 803 students at four-year public and private colleges and universities found that 41.6% chose socialism and 27.8% chose capitalism when asked which economic system they would prefer to live under. The survey also asked about attitudes toward free speech: 29% disagreed that hate speech is technically protected under the First Amendment, and 45.8% agreed that it is sometimes appropriate to shout down or disrupt a campus speaker.
