A Study of Haskell Students: Academic Performance and Cultural Marginality.
Carroll, Richard E.
Journal of American Indian Education, v18 n1 p11-16 Oct 1978
In 1975, behavior of Haskell Indian Junior College freshmen as a whole fit a pattern of cultural marginality, with traditional students exhibiting more pronounced marginal behavior than nontraditional students, reflecting the Haskell social environment. Students' ACT and GPA scores appeared meaningless, supporting the idea of an educational anomie. (SB)
