THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
Campus Romance
is 'Real Thing'
Campus romances, instead of be
ing casually put aside at gradua
tion,• account for half the mar
riages of former women students,
College statistics reveal.
Out of 765 recent Penn State
alumnae now married, 53.24 per
cent boast Penn State men as
husbands. Nearly all the mar
riages resulted from campus
friendships.
Replies from 97 per cent of 1,752
questionnaires sent to regular ses
sion coeds who were graduated
between 1921 and 1935, show:
1. Two of every three alumnae
are married, totals ranging from
78.18 ner cent of the class of 1925
to 49.42 per cent for the class of
1931.
2. The percentage of those mar
rying Penn , State men is fairly
uniform from year to year, al
though .for one class, .1924, it was
unusually high-71.42 per cent.
3. Nearly two-thirds of married
alums have children. The •num
•ber runs as high as .84 per cent
in one of the earlier classes, and as
low as 26 per cent for the last
class surveyed. The biggest Sani
ilies were reported by the class of
1924, with 1.8 children, per fam
ily. The largest number of chil
dren-in one family was seven.
4. Of married alumnae, 17.6 per
cent reported holding part-time
or full-time jobs outside the home.
This percentage was significantly
lower for classes reporting the
most children.
5. The leading occupation
among married alumnae is teach
ing.
