A follow-up study 2 years later of 73 University of Georgia College of Pharmacy graduates found respondents' career commitment level had decreased and most had changed their long-term career plans. Increasing stress was associated with lower career commitment and greater job dissatisfaction. More longitudinal career studies are recommended. (Author/MSE)
