Fortunately/rb ,/, it/pps is/bez possible/jj to/to be/be somewhat/ql more/ql concrete/jj and/cc factual/jj in/in diagnosing/vbg the/at involvement/nn of/in values/nns in/in education/nn ./.
For/in this/dt purpose/nn we/ppss now/rb draw/vb upon/in data/nns from/in sociological/jj and/cc psychological/jj studies/nns of/in students/nns in/in American/jj colleges/nns and/cc universities/nns ,/, and/cc particularly/rb from/in the/at Cornell/np-tl Values/nns-tl Studies/nns-tl ./.
In/in the/at latter/ap research/nn program/nn ,/, information/nn is/bez available/jj for/in 2,758/cd Cornell/np students/nns surveyed/vbn in/in 1950/cd and/cc for/in 1,571/cd students/nns surveyed/vbn in/in 1952/cd ./.
Of/in the/at latter/ap sample/nn ,/, 944/cd persons/nns had/hvd been/ben studied/vbn two/cd years/nns earlier/rbr ;/. ;/.
hence/rb changes/nns in/in attitudes/nns and/cc values/nns can/md be/be analyzed/vbn for/in identical/jj individuals/nns at/in two/cd points/nns in/in time/nn ./.
In/in addition/nn ,/, the/at 1952/cd study/nn collected/vbd comparable/jj data/nns from/in 4,585/cd students/nns at/in ten/cd other/ap colleges/nns and/cc universities/nns scattered/vbn across/in the/at country/nn :/: Dartmouth/np ,/, Harvard/np ,/, Yale/np ,/, Wesleyan/np ,/, North/jj-tl Carolina/np-tl ,/, Fisk/np ,/, Texas/np ,/, University/nn-tl of/in-tl California/np-tl at/in-tl Los/np-tl Angeles/np-tl ,/, Wayne/np ,/, and/cc Michigan/np ./.


	We/ppss find/vb ,/, in/in the/at first/od place/nn ,/, that/cs the/at students/nns overwhelmingly/rb approve/vb of/in higher/jjr education/nn ,/, positively/rb evaluate/vb the/at job/nn their/pp$ own/jj institution/nn is/bez doing/vbg ,/, do/do not/* accept/vb most/ap of/in the/at criticisms/nns levelled/vbn against/in higher/jjr education/nn in/in the/at public/jj prints/nns ,/, and/cc ,/, on/in the/at whole/jj ,/, approve/vb of/in the/at way/nn their/pp$ university/nn deals/vbz with/in value-problems/nns and/cc value/nn inculcation/nn ./.

Other/ap conceivable/jj goals/nns ,/, such/jj as/cs character-education/nn and/cc social/jj adjustment/nn ,/, are/ber of/in secondary/jj importance/nn to/in them/ppo ./.
The/at ideal/nn of/in a/at liberal/jj education/nn impresses/vbz itself/ppl upon/in the/at students/nns more/rbr and/cc more/rbr as/cs they/ppss move/vb through/in college/nn ./.
Even/rb in/in such/jj technical/jj curricula/nns as/cs engineering/nn ,/, the/at senior/nn is/bez much/ql more/ql likely/jj than/cs the/at freshman/nn to/to choose/vb ,/, as/cs an/at ideal/jj ,/, liberal/jj education/nn over/in specific/jj vocational/jj preparation/nn ./.
In/in the/at university/nn milieu/nn of/in scholarship/nn and/cc research/nn ,/, of/in social/jj diversity/nn ,/, of/in new/jj ideas/nns and/cc varied/vbn and/cc wide-ranging/jj interests/nns ,/, ``/`` socialization/nn ''/'' into/in a/at campus/nn culture/nn apparently/rb means/vbz heightened/vbn appreciation/nn of/in the/at idea/nn of/in a/at liberal/jj education/nn in/in the/at arts/nns and/cc sciences/nns ./.

And/cc ,/, contrary/jj to/in many/ap popular/jj assertions/nns ,/, the/at goal-values/nns chosen/vbn do/do not/* seem/vb to/in us/ppo to/to be/be primarily/rb oriented/vbn to/in materialistic/jj success/nn nor/cc to/in mere/jj conformity/nn ./.
Our/pp$ students/nns want/vb occupations/nns that/wps permit/vb them/ppo to/to use/vb their/pp$ talents/nns and/cc training/nn ,/, to/to be/be creative/jj and/cc original/jj ,/, to/to work/vb with/in and/cc to/to help/vb other/ap people/nns ./.

	Occupational/jj choices/nns are/ber also/rb useful/jj --/-- and/cc interesting/jj --/-- in/in bringing/vbg out/rp clearly/rb that/cs values/nns do/do not/* constitute/vb the/at only/ap component/nn in/in goals/nns and/cc aspirations/nns ./.

In/in the/at field/nn of/in political/jj values/nns ,/, it/pps is/bez certainly/rb true/jj that/cs students/nns are/ber not/* radical/jj ,/, not/* rebels/nns against/in their/pp$ parents/nns or/cc their/pp$ peers/nns ./.
And/cc as/cs they/ppss go/vb through/in college/nn ,/, the/at students/nns tend/vb to/to bring/vb their/pp$ political/jj position/nn in/in line/nn with/in that/dt prevalent/jj in/in the/at social/jj groups/nns to/in which/wdt they/ppss belong/vb ./.
Yet/cc they/ppss have/hv accepted/vbn most/ap of/in the/at extant/jj ``/`` welfare/nn state/nn ''/'' provisions/nns for/in health/nn ,/, security/nn ,/, and/cc the/at regulation/nn of/in economic/jj affairs/nns ,/, and/cc they/ppss overwhelmingly/rb approve/vb of/in the/at traditional/jj ``/`` liberalism/nn ''/'' of/in the/at Bill/nn-tl of/in-tl Rights/nns-tl ./.

But/cc the/at correlation/nn is/bez substantial/jj only/rb among/in upperclassmen/nns ./.
In/in other/ap words/nns ,/, as/cs students/nns go/vb through/in college/nn ,/, those/dts who/wps are/ber most/ql successful/jj academically/rb tend/vb to/to become/vb more/ql committed/vbn to/in a/at ``/`` Bill/nn-tl of/in-tl Rights/nns-tl ''/'' orientation/nn ./.

This/dt finding/nn is/bez consistent/jj also/rb with/in the/at fact/nn that/cs student/nn leaders/nns are/ber more/ql likely/jj to/to be/be supporters/nns of/in the/at values/nns implicit/jj in/in civil/jj liberties/nns than/cs the/at other/ap students/nns ./.


	There/ex is/bez now/rb substantial/jj evidence/nn from/in several/ap major/jj studies/nns of/in college/nn students/nns that/cs the/at experience/nn of/in the/at college/nn years/nns results/vbz in/in a/at certain/jj ,/, selective/jj homogenization/nn of/in attitudes/nns and/cc values/nns ./.
Detached/vbn from/in their/pp$ prior/jj statuses/nns and/cc social/jj groups/nns and/cc exposed/vbn to/in the/at pervasive/jj stimuli/nns of/in the/at university/nn milieu/nn ,/, the/at students/nns tend/vb to/to assimilate/vb a/at new/jj common/jj culture/nn ,/, to/to converge/vb toward/in norms/nns characteristic/jj of/in their/pp$ own/jj particular/jj campus/nn ./.
