Baby Boomers Returning to College

- Surveys, Adult Education -

The purpose of this research was to examine the reasons why so-called baby boomers are returning to college at record-breaking rates. A questionnaire was distributed to a group of students whose ages were apportioned to the 18-year Boomer birth time period. Respondents were asked a series of questions directly related to reasons for abstaining from or returning to college.
