| Abstract: | Students attending a midwestern university (N = 520) were surveyed about their attitudes toward the work world, their futures, and adulthood. Differences between underclassmen and upperclassmen in plans following graduation and perceived level of preparation may reflect each group's closeness to graduation. Differences were found between male and female students regarding their connections to and reliance on their parents. Options to better transition students into the work world are discussed. |
