Abstract | This report provides background and linkages necessary to bring state-level experiences of reporting graduation rate statistics to bear in implementing the Student Right-to-Know Act particularly regarding the reporting of student persistence and graduation rates at institutions of higher education. Section I provides: (1) an overview of the extent of state-level graduation rate reporting capabilities and the diversity among these existing data systems; (2) a more technical description of the types of data collected and reported, system designs and other major characteristics; and (3) a discussion of the uses, applications, effectiveness and future plans for these state-level student data systems. Section II provides more detailed information on the development and evolution of student data systems in seven states: Colorado, Florida, Minnesota, North Carolina, New Jersey, Tennessee and Wisconsin. All these states have well-developed student data systems, some of which date back to the early or mid-1970s, all have gone through several stages of system development and have adapted to new types of analysis and reporting requirements as these have emerged. An appendix contains a list of state-level contacts and agencies. (JB) |
