Built to be cited.

High-stakes decisions need numbers that hold up. Every figure here traces to a named public source and a published method, so it survives a board packet, a state approval file, or a peer review.

Graduate earnings come from tax records, not self-reported surveys.Census Bureau earnings outcomes, BLS wage and employment data, O*NET work characteristics, and New York Fed and IPEDS outcomes for recent graduates.
