is Opinion View Marriage As Partnership Hy IMNIKI, C. IIEOOS and HENRY Despite the subordinate role traditionally assigned to the wife in the institution of mar- the results of CAMPUS OPINION Poll taken late in May indicate that collegian viewpoints toward the marital relationship arc changing significantly. Where It was once taken for granted that the bus- liand was the head of a married louschnld, nearly half of today's students view marriage as full partnership wherein this ionor is shared equally bc- husband and wife. Family finances, in (he past assumed to be exclusively in the domain of the husband, arc now viewed In a different light. And while it was once considered improper, perhaps even reprehensible, for a woman to pursue a full-time career after marriage, ovcrcight out of every 10 of today's collegians feel that the wife should be free to pursue a career.

CAMPUS OPINION interviewers talked with 970 randomly- selected students at 46 colleges and universities from coast to coast the week ending May 29. The students were first asked: "Who do you feel should be the 'head' of a married household--that is, the person who should have the most say In making decisions on important matters?" The students anwered: The husband 50.6% The wife 1.3% Both should share equally 45.7%, No opinion 2.4% Interestingly, both males and females, shared essentially the same viewpoints on this question. There however, slight difference in opinion on the basis of sex when the students were asked; do you think should be responsible for making out cheeks for bills, taxes, or other household expenditures?" All Fc- Students Males males The husband 33.2%. 35.3% 30.7% The wife 17.1% 14.4% 21.3% Both 42.2% 41.3% 44.0% No opinion 7.5% 9.0% As the results indicate, while both male and females were more willing to let the wife handle the task of paying the bills, college women were somewhat more assertive with re sped to financial matters, than were men. On the matter of caring for children, tradition played a sub stantially stronger role in de termining which marriage part ner the students chose for this duty.

To the question: "Whose duly should It be, to take daily responsibility for the children." The students replied: The husband 1.0% The wife sn.ti% Both 35.3% No opinion 4.1% Attitudes on campus toward working wives and career worn in were overwhelmingly on the side of allowing greater free- lorn for the woman to pursue occupation of her choice, f'he students, however, did draw slight distinction between al- owing the wife to work for a ime after marriage and pursuing a full-time career. Inter- ilewers asked: "Would you see any objections to the wife working after How about a career? Do you think women should or should not he free lo pursue a full-time career after marriage?" Student responses to the two questions are presented below: SHOULD THE WIFE BE FREE TO Yes 8n.5% 82.1%. No 7.8% 12.2% No opinion 2.7% 5.7% Here again, the sex of the respondent made a difference in lis or her viewpoints. As might be expected, males were more ikely to see objections lo al- owing the wife to work or pursue a career than were females. Interestingly, on all ol the questions, students attend' ing schools, in the South were significantly tradition minded than were collegians in other areas of the country.
