Abstract

We found less than half (48%) of college students read their courses’ syllabi; students who read their syllabi were significantly more successful (GPA = 2.69) in their courses than students who do not read their syllabi (GPA = 2.12). Female students were significantly most likely to read their courses’ syllabi.
