The major objective of this research was to give high school students the opportunity to speak for themselves on people, institutions, and issue they confront and think about daily. The survey consisted of 2,000 personal interviews held in more than 100 geographical areas and conducted by high school seniors under direct faculty supervision. The study raised questions concerning student attitudes toward school and home, as well as reactions to the social, political, and economic environment of the day. Among the results are the following: (1) youth acknowledge the importance of education and approve of the way high schools are providing that education; (2) a majority feel that good student-teacher interaction exists in their schools; (3) almost all think that year-round, part-time work should be a part of student activities; (4) regarding their futures, the students are extremely determined and ambitious; (5) students have grand salary expectations; (6) happiness and family life are valued as vital elements to a complete and satisfying life; and (7) primary concerns of students during the next five years will consist of completing their education, finding jobs, marriage, and raising a family.
