Abstract
Study examined reactions to grief among undergraduates at a diverse, urban campus. Results suggest that non-white students evidenced significantly higher occurrences of a recent death of a loved one than whites, but no differences in their reactions to grief. Foreign-born students experienced higher levels of despair than their non-foreign-born counterparts.
