Certain Adjustment Problems of University Girls.
Jameson, Samuel Haig
Journal of Higher Education, v70 n5 p485-93 Sep-Oct 1999
A survey of 117 freshman and 113 junior women investigated their perceptions of the personal adjustment issues they faced and the solutions they arrived at during their experience at a university. Four areas of adjustment are discussed: underestimation of financial expenses; unfamiliar teaching techniques; large classes; and disillusionment with the college experience.
