The present paper refutes the ideas that students on a given campus are a relatively homogeneous population and that socioeconomic differences disappear when a student enters college. Interviews were conducted with 282 married college students living in university housing to test the hypotheses that (1) the marriage rate of college students will vary inversely by social class background and (2) family and college adjustment patterns of married students living on a college campus will vary by social class background. Married students had a social class background slightly lower than single students, but the difference was too small to firmly support the first hypothesis. Important differences by social class background were found for the education and employment of the wives, the curriculum, career choice, employment patterns, and the trend of grades in college for the husband, and the number, planning, effect of children on adjustment, and the advising of other students to marry in college.
