dc.description.abstractThe result of the present survey appeared to indicate a higher dropout rate among married students, not only for reasons of economics, but because of their dissatisfaction with Graduate Assistants teaching the courses, differences in attitude and orientation to the program, and scheduling of courses. The data appeared useful in generating ideas for inservice sessions for faculty and for administrative inservice sessions.en_US
