  • Class Survey Results
    Harvard and Radcliffe Colleges Class of 1961 55th Reunion Class Survey Results PRELIMINARY REPORT OF SURVEY RESULTS Harvard-Radcliffe Class of 1961 -- 55th Reunion Survey May 21st, 2016 Part I Pre-Harvard Background & Harvard Experience Q1. How many years of secondary school did you attend? (Circle responses as necessary) Question 1 year 2 years 3 years 4 years At a public school 9 11 19 171 At a private school 4 13 12 128 At home 0 0 0 0 Other schooling 0 0 0 0 Editor’s comment: If one assumes that those who attended private school for 1, 2 or 3 years did so for the latter years of their secondary schooling, that would suggest that c. 157 respondents graduated from private school. The 157:171 graduation distribution among survey respondents (male & female) is very close to the 50:50 private/public ratio reported for the Harvard class only by the Harvard Crimson on the day we matriculated in 1957. Q2 - Were you a Harvard or Radcliffe "legacy"? Yes Male Female Total % 54 13 67 20.8 No Male Female Total 197 57 254 79.2 Q3 - Which of the following best describes your parents' socio-economic status at the time you entered Harvard? % Question Male Female Total (n=324) Wealthy / Well-to-do 29 3 32 9.8% Professional / Upper Middle Class, comfortable but not wealthy 105 44 149 46.0% Middle-Middle Class 72 18 90 27.7% Lower Middle Class, white collar but struggling economically 37 6 43 13.3% Working Class / blue collar 10 0 10 3.1% Q4#1 – What was the highest level of education attained by each of your parents?
