ASU chairman denies that college makes youth radical
Dr. John A. Cochran of Arizona State University told the Arizona Bankers Association that more college graduates are Republicans than high school graduates and that freshmen often seem more radical than seniors. He said only a small percentage are truly radical while many are unsettled, and he noted youth apply moral standards to society, not just family. Some attend college for better jobs, but many seek meaning beyond earnings.
