students entering colleges as first-time freshmen during the summer and fall
of 1970. It is the fifth in the series of annual reports which was initiated

of the Student Information Form. These data are weighted to provide a norma-
tive picture of the college freshmen population for use by persons engaged in
1
guidance, counseling, administration, educational research, :.and manpower studies.
Following the design of previous reports in this series, data are reported
separately for men and women, for several types of institutions, and for
lThe data from the Student Information Form also provide initial input
information for longitudinal research. Follow-up surveys of individual
students in each cohort year are conducted at various points in time
after the initial survey of entering freshmen. Preliminary results from
follow-ups of freshmen surveyed in previous years have been published in
another ACE Research Report. In addition, follow-up institutional reports
have been sent as a continuing service to institutions that participated in
earlier years of the Cooperative Institutional Research Program (Bayer, • .!.!.,
1970).

participation sample and the normative sample results from imposing certain
freshmen class or if it administered the form after the first two weeks of
classes. These matters have been noted in the previous reports in this
series and are discussed more extensively in a special report dealing with
during the period of freshmen orientation, or during the first two weeks
plans, past activities, behaviors, and attitudes. Data meeting quality control
The sampling design for the 1970 survey of entering freshmen uses
essentially the same stratification procedure that was introduced with the
example, some professional schools) and some very small institutions were
excluded. The defined population included all other accredited and non-
year institutions, and (3) reassignment of those institutions which since 1968
have changed status with respect to one or more variables in the stratification

which are used to correct for the resulting disproportionate sampling of
institutions in each cell may be found in the 1968 national norms report
(Creager, et. al., 1968b) and in the previously noted special report
(Creager, 1968a).

However, most of these branch campuses are clearly institutions with two-year
or four-year programs only. Consequently, for this survey, those branch campuses
with four-year programs were placed in stratification cell 09. Those branches
with two-year programs were placed in a new stratification cell, 37. A small
group of these institutions which are part of a larger university system, but
two-year predominately black institutions were removed from cells 34 and 35 and
reassigned to a new stratification cell, 36. A special effort, which was only
partly successful, was made to insure that this cell was well represented in the
sampling for 1970. It was anticipated that this cell, and the new cell 37 de-
scribed above, might have to be collapsed with other cells in the final weighting
for this and any further surveys. On the other hand, cell separation is not
feasible for predominately black universities as there are only two such institu-

Institutional Participation
of entering freshmen was 556. All 400 institutions that participated in the
1969 survey were invited to participate again this year. Of these, 37S (94%)
occurring since the sample was drawn for the 1969 survey, invitations were
et. al., 1967). Another group of institutions (N = 67) that also received
invitations included 23 former participants that had been unable to participate
that accepted our invitation were unable to return the completed forms in time
to be processed for inclusion in the national norms. Thus, data were obtained
from a total of 425 (90%) of the institutions that had agreed to participate
each of the five years, together with each institution's current stratification
cell assignment and an indication of the representativeness of its data for each
As was the case in the four prior surveys, the national norms for entering
freshmen are based only on data from those institutions that are judged to have
in the entering freshmen class who completed the 1970 Student Information Form
and on information about the manner in which the forms were administered.
it was decided to base the national norms for 1970 entering freshmen on data

provided by 275 of the institutions.
Weighting Procedures
the data obtained from students enrolling at institutions in the various cells
are differentially weighted. Moreover, the data are adjusted to correct for
the normative sample students who have transferred into the freshmen class
the 1970 national norms. The table shows the number of colleges in each

participating institutions, those institutions whose data were considered
not to be representative have been informed that comparisons between their
institutional data and the national norms should be made with caution.

stratification cell, and the cell weights applied to each institution's data
in computing the national norms. The cell weights, listed in the last two
columns of Table 1, are the ratios, by sex, between the number of first-time,
a given cell, and the total number of first-time, full-time freshmen entering
ACE sample institutions in that cell. These weights are further adjusted
who reported their sex on the form. This second weight is typically near 1.0
and, in the case of an institution that obtains data from its entire freshman
class, will actually be 1.0. The final weight applied to each student's data
was the product of this within-institution participation weight and the appropri-

ate cell weight shown in Table 1.
It is important to note that these data reflect the response of entering freshmen
first, to obtain student input data for longitudinal research; and second,

Note that the cell weight shown in Table 1 is a constant for each ACE sample
institutions in a given cell, whereas the within-institution weight is a
constant for a given college but varies from one institution to another, de-
pending on how adequately the particular institution "covered" its entering
class. An additional type of weight (not shown) is the "institutional weight".
This weight, defined as the ratio between the number of institutions in the
population within a given cell and the number of partiCipating institutions
whose data were used in computing the 1970 national norms, will be utilized in
studies where the institution (rather than the student) is the unit of analysis.

of the total student popu1ation. The 275 institutions included in the national
norms are divided into two-year colleges, four-year colleges, and universities.
The institutions are then further divided into nine other categories (two-year
private universities). The first category shown in Table 3 includes all institu-
by sex and control, and predominately black institutions. Appendix 4 (p. 87)

as used by the United States Office of Education (USOE, 1970).

The items of normative data appear in the same order in the norms report
S
and in the individual reports furnished to each participating institution.
The first 24 pages of the national norms present item data separately for men,
women, and all students according to the first 13 categories shown in Table 3.
The following eight pages show regional norms for men, women, and all students;
and the last eight pages of normative data are similarly arranged for the

it should be remembered that for most of the items reported here there is also
it was decided that it was more important to reflect the realities of the
American system of higher education for the current year than to ensure complete
apparently sharp changes from the 1969 to the 1970 normative data for some items
interpret time trends. Readers who wish to make such comparisons should examine
the separate norms for universities, four-year colleges, and two-year colleges.
If changes from 1969 to 1970 occurring within each of these groups are similar,
then the conclusion that they are real population changes is strengthened.

The same caution should be heeded with respect to "head counts" presented
