Students and Social Class.

Rudd, Ernest

Studies in Higher Education, v12 n1 p99-106 1987

British statistics on university students' social class were reexamined with a national survey of entering students, and found to be only partially accurate, due at least in part to methodology. Comparison with 1961-62 figures showed a considerable change in class distribution, attributed to changing composition of the working population. (MSE)
