| Summary: | A description of the general characteristics of Lake Land College students is presented. Academic and socioeconomic characteristics and special educational needs and educational aspirations are included. The first item analyzed was the net family income, which was found to be slightly lower for vocational-technical students than for college transfer students. Educational background of fathers of college transfer students is significantly higher than that of fathers of vocational-technical students, but the educational background of the mothers is similar for both groups. Data results show that the student body at Lake Land College is composed of students who have weak academic backgrounds as well as students who have outstanding and average backgrounds. Lake Land students seem to have similar needs as the average of all Illinois, public, two-year college students. A majority indicated interest in receiving either a two- or four-year college degree.
