Abstract
Describes research conducted in The Netherlands in the spring of 1992 among students of higher educational and academic institutions. The research set out to discover whether living in a room, student house or residential on campus contribute to the development of certain skills ‐ in particular, management skills. Concludes that the skills which halls of residence students acquire are in the field of planning and organizing activities, while the skills of students living in a student house are more in the areas of control and co‐ordination. Argues that, beside the compulsory nature of an educational programme, professional socialization effects are also generated by groups of friends, the influence of a student society, the work experience of the student and also the way the type of housing for the student is organized.
