Close Friendship(s)<br />

Question C9 addressed the need women students have <strong>for</strong> close Christian<br />

friends. It stated, “I have a close friend(s) to spend time <strong>with</strong> on a regular basis.” Of the<br />

289 women who chose to answer this question, 236 (82%) said they have one or more<br />

close friends. Of concern was the fact that 53 of the respondents (18%) answered that<br />

they do not have a close friend (see Table 48).<br />

Abortion<br />

Table 49 reveals that seven female students who have had an abortion in the<br />

past still have painful emotions and thoughts in which they need help to address. Over<br />

half of the respondents (58%) chose not to respond to this question about abortion. It does<br />

not necessarily mean that none of these 172 women have had an abortion, but rather that<br />

none of them need help in dealing <strong>with</strong> negative emotions related to abortion. The survey<br />

did not ask how many women may have had an abortion.
