ɪʌn extra sheet, Schedule ID was inserted for ’Aboriginal self
and family' at S.A.I.T., where all the students were Aboriginal.
This could not be done at Stone’s Business College, as students
identified as Aboriginal for the purpose of secondary grants without
necessarily identifying themselves as Aboriginal in other circumstances.
The sheet was also inserted at Pt. Augusta where it was acceptable
for students to identify and be identified as Aboriginal students -
it was not acceptable at Taperoo and Salisbury North.

These circumstances reflect the theorizing of the reality definers and
are an important part of the 'world' of the students (See Chapter XIX
above). However, they must be accepted as a severe limitation to the
findings in this particular area.

Aboriginal views about the self from all institutions are found in
responses to Schedule II, Chapter XXII.
