Abstract

The social revolution taking place in the country today is also affecting a crisis in the educational world. Tension and a spirit of unrest exist not only within a whole school system but also in integrated, de segregated schools themselves. It is the purpose of this study to determine which of three factors, viz., curriculum choices, inner structure of peer groups, or teacher attitudes, is the foremost problem in creating student-tensions which exist in a certain desegregated Catholic girl's high school. For the sake of anonymity the high school under study will be referred to as "Caritas High School".
