Note: Ending dates were not obtained in 1977 for post-degree courses.
Therefore, if a 1977 respondent did not take any additional courses
after 1977, we have no ending dates from the earlier data to use as
a fill for this variable. Post degree college information was not
obtained if attended for less than one year for 1977 non-respondents.
All dates for education were asked by season and the mid-point of
each season was selected for the data.
(Summer = July; Fall - Oct; Winter = Jan; Spring = April)
