A Troubled Future? Participation in Postsecondary Education by Youths with Disabilities.
Fairweather, James S.; Shaver, Debra M.
Journal of Higher Education, v61 n3 p332-48 May-Jun 1990
A nationally representative sample of youths with disabilities who recently exited high school was studied to determine their level of participation in postsecondary educational programs. The results show that disabled individuals participate at only one-quarter the rate of their nondisabled counterparts. (Author/MLW)
