My research branches into three streams. The first consists of a comparative study of careers in life course perspective, examining what people do, and what people think about what they do. The second consists of a comparative study of undergraduate attrition at U.S. research universities. The third consists of a study of identity-formation among undergraduates, their academic and social integration in college, and the trajectories and turning points of their college lives. Each of the three streams is propelled by a central current: the study of lives in social context. Each also pays special attention to the major contexts of occupation and education in how lives are patterned and experienced.
