Description
Summary:Comparative study of intellectual values held by liberal arts college seniors on two Catholic and two nonsectarian college campuses and by Jesuit seminarians reveals that the seminarians tend to emphasize moral formation in their definition of the ideal college education more than do the other two groups, and that the seminarians place far greater emphasis on interpersonal values in education and occupation. Further, in their educational and occupational values, those seminarians (50%) who aspire to the academic doctorate are closer to the doctorate-bound students on the Catholic and nonsectarian campuses than they are to the other seminarians, although they place less emphasis on creativity and freedom from supervision than do the comparable groups on the campuses.
