Information on educational aspirations and expectations was then obtained from a random sample of students enrolled in 1964-65 in 30 rural Washington high schools. Farm versus non-farm student differences were examined with respect to social, economic, and cultural factors. Farm boys had higher aspirations than non-farm boys, while aspirations of farm and non-farm girls did not differ significantly. Both findings contradicted prior research findings. The educational aspirations of farm boys appeared to be less realistic than those of non-farm boys. The results indicated that the traditionally conservative attitudes of the farm population toward higher education have changed. (JH)
