| Summary: | The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of pre-college Catholic education on selected undergraduates in three institutions of higher learning in Dade County, Florida, in three areas of concern: (1) community involvement, (2) support for Catholic schools, and (3) the level of social consciousness, with implications for the lay leader in the Catholic school system. A questionnaire was modified and delivered to three colleges in Dade County, Florida, to be distributed to a sampling of the freshman and sophomore classes. Through the use of standard follow-up procedures, a return of 66% was achieved. A base line, descriptive analysis of the data was conducted. The data did not show a large degree of difference in the perceived impact of those students who attended only Catholic schools as opposed to those who attended only non-Catholic schools or those who attended both kinds of schools. Differences were observed in items dealing with tuition tax credit, support for lay teachers, Catholics and organizational membership, teachers in Catholic schools and the right to strike, support for an archdiocesan school board, financial and moral support for the Catholic school system, and the need for federal support for teacher salaries and new buildings. | |
