College-Student Mothers and On-Site Child Care: Luxury or Necessity?

Gonchar, Nancy

Social Work in Education, v17 n4 p226-34 Oct 1995

Examines the effect of on-campus child-care arrangements on a sample of 75 student mothers at Lehman College in New York City. Findings indicate that on-site child care allowed student mothers to take substantially greater advantage of their educational experience and was a highly satisfactory intervention that recognized their special needs.
