Break With Family Hard for Students
One of the main problems of college students is in breaking away from family supervision, three University educators said recei
supervision, three University educators said recently. College students have the problems of any individual breaking away from family supervision, said Harry J. LaPine, assistant professor of education and a counselor at the Guidance Bureau.
"After the break, it is difficult at first to perceive the responsibilities of adults, but the student learns to adjust," Prof. LaPine said.
Donna Younger, assistant to the dean of women, said there is no problem common to all college students.
"There are different manifestations. Students have to adjust themselves to budgeting their time and to a group living situation," Miss Younger said.
Howard Baumgartel, assistant professor of human relations, said before college, students do what their parents want.
"In college, students change to their own goals. There is nobody around to tell them what to do," Prof. Baumgartel said.
He said some students do not have the correct image of an educated person.
"For this reason, they fight education and view the demands of teachers as unreasonable. Maybe it is hard work, but it will be that wav
later in professional life" he said. Prof. LaPine said students often change their reasons for coming to college after they get there.
"The college student usually develops reasons of his own. His goals are a part of his philosophy.
"The college student has average or better intelligence. In college, he learns to employ his intelligence to adjust to life. He learns that a college education is more than getting a degree," he said.
Prof. Baumgartel gave three reasons why students come to college improving social status, intrinsic interest in learning, and parental pressure.
"Of course, there are subtle reasons such as meeting or finding a mate,' he said.
Prof. Baumgartel said those who continue their education incorporate middle class values to get ahead postponing gratification by working now to get something better later.
He said those who quit college may do so not through a lack of ability, but because of psychological difficulties.
