Sexual assault in college: In a Washington Post/Kaiser Family Foundation poll conducted from January through March 2015, 46% of adults (ages 17‑26) who attended college during the past 4 years say it’s unclear whether sexual activity when both people have not given explicit agreement is sexual assault. The survey methodology section states that the margin of error is ±3.5% at the 95% confidence level.
