This study attempted to investigate the subject of Clothing and Textiles as it is presented in higher institutions in the United States. A questionnaire was sent in 1979 to all 108 colleges with Clothing and Textiles Courses, and with more than ten degree-holding graduates. Of the 65 replies, 62 were used for analysis. The analysis revealed a wide variation concerning the names used for Clothing and Textiles, as well as for Home Economics. One-third used Clothing and Textiles as a subject and/or course name, and Fashion Design and Fashion Merchandising names show increase in number. Internship programs are cited by 91%, and reveals the stress being made in integrating with the business/industry and public sectors. Curriculum analysis was conducted on 25 colleges out of the 62. These colleges adhered to societal needs, i.e., leaned more toward the vocational than the academic programs. Japan's Home Economics must support arguments for curriculum variations.
