Aylesworth, Laurence S.; Bloom, Bernard L. – Journal of College Student Personnel, 1976
Students (N=418) with rural and urban backgrounds in the 1970 freshman class of a large state university were studied over a four-year period. Attrition rate was consistently higher for rural students, suggesting a special set of stresses for these students. Suggestions for developing outreach and remedial student services are presented.
