2007 Freshmen Attitudes Report

The 2007 National Research Study Second Annual Nationa Freshman Attitudes Report provides some eye-opening information. When presented with the following statement:

Over the years,books have broadened my horizons and stimulated my imagination 49.5% of males and 63.1% agreed

I get a great deal of satisfaction from reading 37.8% of males and 53.7% of females agreed

Books have never gotten me very excited. 48.1% of males and 32.9% of females agreed

I don’t know about you, but, I find these responses worrying. Read the ENTIRE REPORT, it is only 16 pages with many of those being tables.

   I would think that the 63% of females who said that books broadened their horizons and stiumlated their imaginations would find that experiance exciting; apparently only 32 did.
