  A survey from the  NCAA in May found that 58% of 18- to 22-year-olds have engaged in at least one sports betting activity. That number jumps to nearly 60 percent of students living on a college campus.  While CU Boulder ended its official partnership with Denver-based sports gambling company, PointsBet,  in March of last year,  Henry Larson, and Kiara DeMare of the CU Independent spoke with students to hear whether or not feelings about sports betting have changed on campus.
