A total of 403 freshmen at Saint Mary's, 82 percent of the incoming class, participated. Comparative data for 1976-81 are presented for Saint Mary's freshmen.

Specific areas of concern include: racial background, current religious preference, residence, preferred residence, distance college is from home, mother's and father's education, mother's and father's occupation, mothers and father's religious preference, estimated parental income, number currently dependent on parents, number of other dependents in college, source for first year's education expenses, selection of Saint Mary's, number of other colleges applied to, grades in high school, activities in the past year, reasons for college attendance, degree plans, career plans, important life objectives, political views, feminist viewpoints, other issues, and college rights and responsibilities.
