      ab: The culture theory of class conceives of social classes as selected cultural groupings, which give to their members a similar stock of ideas, values, feelings, attitudes, and forms of behavior. It recognizes the fact that people live, work, play, and think on different class levels. The differences between classes are not merely financial or external planes of living, but they encompass the entire range of social behavior: occupation, vocation, manner of speaking, social and sexual attitudes, musical and literary tastes, and philosophy of life. If college students from the lower socioeconomic groups are atypical in their behavior, according to the culture theory of class, by attending institutions of higher learning, one wonders if they might not also deviate from their socio-economic group norm in other social characteristics. have similar religious backgrounds. J.W. McConnell reports that lower class husbands have less education than their wives, and upper class husbands have more education than their wives. It would be interesting to find whether, similar educational differentials would be found among the parents of college students; and lastly, is there any association between rural-urban and geographical location of college students' homes and socio-economic background. The present study is an attempt to analyze the socio-economic backgrounds of students at an institution of higher learning. The data for the study were compiled in an effort to test the hypothesis that there is no relationship between the socio-economic background of college students and family size, parental education, religion, or residence.
