"Since 'religious adjustment is part of the person's total adjustment,' the writer believes that an investigation of the nature of the religious problems which trouble college students might be of some value to those who are concerned with the satisfactory life relationships of undergraduates. The writer also believes that a knowledge of the sources which students seek for help with their religious problems might contribute to a better understanding of students as they attempt to adjust to encountered difficulties. Consequently, the present investigation was undertaken to discover the nature of the religious problems of undergraduate students at Florida State University and to determine the sources sought by students for help with such problems. No attempt was made to find the cause of any problem nor the reason for the absence of problems. No evaluation of the effectiveness of the counseling which students indicated they had received was attempted"--Introduction. / Typescript. / "March, 1952." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science." / Advisor: H.

The problem of finding a suitable instrument for projecting, or influencing the projection of an organized guidance program for the Florida State University Demonstration School is an outgrowth of at least three areas of personal observation and experience of the writer. First, it is a generally accepted fact that students are either graduating or leaving schools each year, in every county of every State in the United States, without the benefit of proper guidance or plans for the future. Second, as one who has taught in the public schools of this State, the writer is convinced that no individual can do a conscientious job of "teaching" unless he is an active, enthusiastic, and cooperative participant in an active, functioning guidance program within the school involved. Third, as a graduate student of the seminary and Florida State University, the writer is convinced of the need for a more adequate teacher-training program. This conversation has come about through studies in the field of education, wide reading and further study of professional opinion in the field of guidance, and observation of the "finished product" at work and as they express their ideas (?), attitudes (?) and philosophies (?) of education. / "A Paper." / Typescript. / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts under Plan II." / Includes "Problem Check List : Junior High School Form" by Ross L.
