A University of Iowa poll released Monday shows that Mitt Romney continues to be the leading GOP presidential candidate among likely voters in that state's first-in-the-nation party caucuses on Jan. 3. Among Democrats, Sen. Hillary Clinton of New York is the favorite, according to the poll, closely followed by Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois. "It's clear Romney is the one to beat in Iowa," said DAVID REDLAWSK, Hawkeye Poll director and a political science professor at the University of Iowa. "His support is now nearly triple his nearest competitor. He leads among all demographic groups, including religious conservatives, and is especially strong among the older voters, who tend to be most likely to attend a caucus." Deseret News is published in Salt Lake City, Utah.

In 1896 the Chicago College of Pharmacy became part of the University of Illinois, beginning the state university's presence in the city. Gradually, between 1897 and 1943 the other private institutions became colleges in the university. In 1925 the General Hospital opened as the university's teaching and research facility. The state legislature then created the Medical Center District in 1941, with the university's health colleges and hospital forming key components. With the addition of schools of nursing (1951), public health (1970), and the associated health professions (1979), UIC became one of the few universities in the nation with a full complement of six health science colleges.

ARTHUR MILLER, a political science professor at the University of Iowa, said he thinks there are pros and cons to the Iowa caucuses. "Iowa citizens are responsible in that they go out and do interact and listen to the candidates," he said. "But a better system would be a rotating start point. It would represent different aspects of the United States." He ... agreed that some might dislike the Iowa caucuses because the state is becoming less and less representative of the rest of the country, with its lack of urban settings and a large proportion of older residents.
