Employer Aid for Postsecondary Education

John Bruce Lee, Suzanne B. Clery, C. Dennis Carroll

A study examined the use of educational aid provided by employers to employees, including the types of employees and educational and training programs that employers support. Two National Center for Education Statistics data sets provided the data for the analysis: National Household Education Survey, which provides information describing all educational activities of adults, and National Postsecondary Student Aid Survey, which provides detailed information about how employers help students pay for postsecondary education. Some of the findings were the following: (1) 13 percent of adults participated in credential programs in 1995, compared with about 20 percent who participated in work-related or other structured programs; (2) 72 percent of adults employed as engineers, surveyors, or architects who enrolled in credential programs received financial assistance from their employers, compared with 50 percent of employees who were executives, administrators, and managers, 10 percent of employees who were marketing and sales workers, and 4 percent who were low-skilled manual laborers; (3) adults who worked part time were less likely to receive employer financial aid if they enrolled in credential programs (7 percent) than those who worked full time (37 percent); (4) 6 percent of all undergraduates received financial aid from their employers, averaging $932, and 13 percent of graduate and first-professional students received employer assistance averaging $2,451; and (5) male graduate students received approximately one-third more employer financial aid than female students. (The report includes 16 tables and 7 figures, a glossary, and technical notes.) (KC)

Organophosphorus Chemistry

Volume 26

B J Walker, David W Allen

Organophosphorus Chemistry provides a comprehensive annual review of the literature. Coverage includes phosphines and their chalcogenides, phosphonium salts, low coordination number phosphorus compounds, penta- and hexa-coordinated compounds, tervalent phosphorus acids, nucleotides and nucleic acids, ylides and related compounds, and phosphazenes. The series will be of value to research workers in universities, government and industrial research organisations, whose work involves the use of organophosphorus compounds. It provides a concise but comprehensive survey of a vast field of study with a wide variety of applications, enabling the reader to rapidly keep abreast of the latest developments in their specialist areas. Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage of progress in the major areas of chemical research. Written by experts in their specialist fields the series creates a unique service for the active research chemist, supplying regular critical in-depth accounts of progress in particular areas of chemistry. For over 80 years the Royal Society of Chemistry and its predecessor, the Chemical Society, have been publishing reports charting developments in chemistry, which originally took the form of Annual Reports. However, by 1967 the whole spectrum of chemistry could no longer be contained within one volume and the series Specialist Periodical Reports was born. The Annual Reports themselves still existed but were divided into two, and subsequently three, volumes covering Inorganic, Organic and Physical Chemistry. For more general coverage of the highlights in chemistry they remain a 'must'. Since that time the SPR series has altered according to the fluctuating degree of activity in various fields of chemistry. Some titles have remained unchanged, while others have altered their emphasis along with their titles; some have been combined under a new name whereas others have had to be discontinued. The current list of Specialist Periodical Reports can be seen on the inside flap of this volume.

Subsequent Educational Attainment of High School Dropouts

Jennifer Berktold, Sonya Geis, Phillip Kaufman, C. Dennis Carroll, National Center for Education Statistics

This study uses data from the 1988 National Education Longitudinal Study and its 1994 followup to examine the educational and employment attainment of 1988 eighth graders who dropped out of high school. About half of them ultimately completed high school. By 1994, 16% had completed a high school diploma, 29% had completed a General Educational Development (GED) or equivalency certificate, and 24% were working on a diploma or GED. The remaining one-third of dropouts had no credential and were not pursuing any further education. High school completion among dropouts was associated with socioeconomic status. Dropouts who had demonstrated academic ability, although not necessarily academic performance, were most likely to complete high school. By 1994, 2 years after most of the"cohort" had completed high school, high school completion among dropouts was associated with some educational, but few employment, characteristics. In 1994, most dropouts were either working, looking for work, or at home. About the same proportion of dropouts as 1988 eighth graders who had never dropped out reported working full time or part time in 1994, but those who had never dropped out were more likely to be taking academic courses. More than half of those who had never dropped out were enrolled in 2-year or 4-year postsecondary institutions. About one in four dropouts had enrolled in a postsecondary institution by 1994. One appendix is a glossary, and the other contains technical notes and remarks on methodology. (Contains 19 tables, 7 figures, and 12 references.) (SLD)

A Guide to a Man's Spiritual Health

C. Dennis Williams

Through the years I have known Dr. Williams, he has always maintained a wonderful and stable balance between the physical and spiritual worlds. This book is another example of the two-fold theological and practical perspective that he always brought to his teaching and preaching. John R. Lillis, Ph.D. Executive Vice President of Academic Affairs Grace College and Seminary The Association of Black Cardiologist, in 7 Steps to a Healthy Heart, considers spiritual health a top priority. Pastor Williams has effectively compiled a document that is essential to a mans ability to be spiritually healthy and thereby much better prepared to be physically capable and productive. This is a must read. Robert L. Gillespie, M.D. FACC Chairman of the Board, Association of Black Cardiologists The Rev. Dr. C. Dennis Williams has done it again. We need physical and spiritual food now and more than ever. He preaches and teaches men that daily devotion and fellowship with the Lord goes beyond an apple a day. Reverend Swayne A. Cofield, M.D.

Transfer Behavior Among Beginning Postsecondary Students, 1989-94

Alexander C. McCormick, C. Dennis Carroll

This report analyzes patterns of undergraduate transfer behavior of students who entered postsecondary education during the academic year 1989-90. Data were derived from the spring 1994 follow-up of the 1990 Beginning Postsecondary Students Longitudinal Study. The report notes that attendance at multiple institutions is widespread: at 4-year institutions almost half of beginning students enrolled elsewhere within 5 years, although only 25 percent transferred; and at community colleges, 25 percent were identified as working toward a bachelor's degree. The report data, which are summarized in 9 figures and 28 tables, and the discussion cover the following areas: (1) definition of transfer; (2) the general phenomenon of attendance at multiple institutions; (3) transfer activity in general; (4) transfer from 4-year institutions; (5) transfer from public 2-year to 4-year institutions; and (5) transfer activities, controlling for background. Three appendixes provide reference tables, a glossary, and technical notes and methodology. (Contains 12 references.) (CH)
