Abstract
The three specific objectives of this study were to develop a clearer understanding of the image which business has on the college campus, to develop insights into the attitudes of business students and a comparison of students in the business college with members of Delta Sigma Pi, a professional fraternity for male students enrolled in business. In order to base the response evaluations on a reasonably homogeneous group of subjects, only those colleges with chapters of the fraternity were considered. The research data was collected during the fall of 1972 from 1,000 questionnaires mailed to 13 selected colleges . Based on the comparative data obtained, it is possible to accept the major hypothesis that students in professional fraternal organizations are significantly different in their attitudes and personal characteristics than are students who do not belong to these organizations.
