title: Students who work.
abstract: A study of 1,800 Kentucky high school students revealed that working students demonstrate a remarkable diversity of work experience and uses of earnings while not differing markedly from nonworking students in school experience. The data, both quantitative and qualitative, suggest that conventional wisdom is not sufficient to capture fully the current realities of students who work; however, unresolved theoretical issues remain.
