| Research Abstract |
I surveyed 2647 students at 14 universities and reported the results to the Japan Society of Educational Sociology. I have developed four main views about university education as follows. First, a university,s charter has an educational effect. Second, universities are important as places for initiation into adult society (rite of passage). Third, university classes help build basic occupational ability. Fourth, it is important for a university to play a role in the community.
