Description
Summary:This study examined the student normative support for Chickering and Gamson's (1987) seven principles of good undergraduate education. The findings suggest that there is empirical evidence of student support for 3 of the 7 principles: faculty-student contact, cooperation among students, and high expectations. However, this support is differentiated by a student's race and social fraternity membership. Implications for theory and practice are suggested by the findings of this study, as are several avenues for future research.
