The Effects of University Education on the Political Attitudes of Young Adults.
Mintz, Eric
Canadian Journal of Higher Education, v28 n1 p21-40 1998
Attitudes of a panel of 124 young adults in the Corner Brook (Newfoundland) area on a variety of politically relevant topics were examined over a two-year period to measure the possible effects of a university education. Generally, those who attended college did not change significantly in their attitudes, compared with high school graduates who were not attending college. (Author/MSE)
