| Summary: | A 1968 study by Warren W. Willingham of the accessibility of higher education in the United States was replicated in Georgia in 1976. Some significant methodological problems occurred in attempting complete replication. The Georgia study resulted in interpretations of accessibility for 1968 that differ from the Willingham study. It also revealed an improved condition of accessibility in 1976. Among the variables used in determining accessibility were tuition and fees, school selectivity, and geographic proximity. Some statistical charts and a bibliography are included. (MSE) |
