Abstract:
What follows is a longitudinal inquiry of students assessed over a one-year period (from Fall
1996 to Fall 1997). Analysis will be made against those students in Cohort 1 who were also
measured one year out. In addition, comparisons may be made utilizing the initial study of
Cohort 2 students. However, since there was no segmentation of continuing and non-returning
students in the initial study, one should not infer too much from the data interpretations between
the initial study and the follow-up analysis of Cohort 2.
