- Summary:
-
This document presents a series of tables concerning a 1966 study of the Woodrow Wilson Fellows who entered graduate school from 1958 through 1963. At the time of the study, 49% of the fellows had not yet earned the doctorate, and were no longer in school. Among the men, 44% were defined as dropouts, and among the women, 64% were thus defined. Table I of the report shows both sex differences and discipline differences in the percentage of dropouts among the fellows; Table II shows the sex and discipline differences in attrition when second year financial support is taken into account; Table III shows the effect of parenthood on dropout rates for men and women by field; and Table IV shows the effect on sex and discipline differences in attrition when faculty rating of Woodrow Wilson Fellows are controlled.
