Question

Beverly attends a community college and works 30 hours per week in a veterinarian's office to pay her tuition and bills. according to the text, beverly could be best described as a member of the _______ subculture.

Answer 1

Vocational Subculture is the correct answer.

There are 4 types of subculture (such as collegiate, academic, nonconformist, and vocational). While the collegiate subculture focuses on having fun and socializing, the academic subculture identifies with the intellectual concerns of the faculty for its own sake and the nonconformist subculture is hostile to the college environment as a whole. However, the vocational subculture is interested in one's career and does everything that is possible in order to obtain degrees that are paramount for advancement, which is Beverly's ultimate goal when attending a community college and working 30 hours weekly in a vet's office to pay her tuition and bills.
