[ adverb ] (education) in regard to academic matters
Examples "academically, this is a good school" Used in print (David Boroff, "Jewish Teen-Age Culture"...)It is significant , too , that the older teen-agers I interviewed believed , unlike the younger ones , that Jewish students tend to do better academically than their gentile counterparts . The consequence of this is that the girls at Brooklyn_College outnumber the boys and do somewhat better academically . This means that a great many academically talented girls are discouraged from pursuing graduate work of a more demanding nature . (James Bryant Conant, Slums and Suburbs...)In a later chapter dealing with the suburban school , I shall discuss the importance of arranging a program for the academically talented and highly gifted youth in any high_school where he is found . |
