Final questionnaires in a study of the student's transition from school to college are being distributed this week under the direction of the secretary of Phillips Brooks House.
This study has been under progress for a year and a half in a score of colleges in the east under the direction of Lincoln D. Hale, with the cooperation of Phillips Brooks House. Besides Harvard, other colleges included are Dartmouth, Bates, Princeton, Yale, Columbia, and others.
The first questionnaire was distributed to students in about a hundred schools in the east, those in this vicinity including Roxbury Latin, Exeter, Andover, Boston Latin, and Cambridge Latin.
Sex and Religion
Three-more questionnaires were distributed during the Freshman year and the final one this week. The number of students at Harvard taking the tests has shrunk from 150 to 85.
The questions range from intimate studies of the attitude of the student towards the opposite sex to his ideas on religion. Such questions as "Are you nervous when alone with a group of women?"; "How often do you go out with girls?"; "What studies do you like best?"; "Has your choice of an occupation when you leave college changed from what it was originally?" and "Do you believe in the necessity of religion?"
