CRA Working Paper 2014-02: a Profile of Higher Educational
A Profile of Higher Education Institutions 02 in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area - By Joanna Biernacka-Lievestro Graduate Research Assistant George Mason University Center for Regional Analysis Working Paper No. 2014 May 2014 A Profile of Higher Education Institutions in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area Working Paper 2014-02 by Joanna Biernacka-Lievestro Graduate Research Assistant Introduction The Washington, D.C. metropolitan area is one of the leading hubs for higher education in the United States. A 2012 study by the Martin Property Institute,1 which analyzed the Census Bureau’s 2010 American Community Survey data, places metropolitan Washington, D.C. as the fourth largest college town in the United States, following only New York City, Los Angeles and Chicago. The Washington, D.C. region surpassed other metropolitan areas with high concentrations of college students, such as Philadelphia, Boston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Miami, San Francisco and Atlanta. This research shows that there are at least 93 institutions of higher education operating in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. This report presents data on these institutions’ enrollment and employment by type and location. Due to reporting limitations, data were only available for 78 of these institutions. As of the Fall 2012 semester, the 78 analyzed universities and colleges enrolled approximately 338,000 graduate and undergraduate students and employed about 70,600 faculty and staff. It must be emphasized that the numbers of students and employees are underestimated due to missing data for the 15 schools and because it is expected that the list of public and private universities and colleges compiled for this research is not exhaustive.2 1 Florida Richard. -

Beyond White Gloves
Katharine Gibbs & Her School Beyond White Gloves An NEHGS member asked me, “Wasn’t Katie Gibbs a finishing school?” when I was researching the history of the world’s most famous secretarial school. My experience and research taught me otherwise. Finishing schools prepared women for a life of leisure, while Gibbs prepared graduates for lives of financial and emotional independence. My challenges were learning where Katharine Ryan Gibbs (1863–1934) fit in the history of business education, separating the myths from the truth and presenting a history of the institution’s hundred years, 1911 to 2011.

National Student Satisfaction and Priorities Report
2009 NATIONAL RESEARCH REPORT National Student Satisfaction and Priorities Report Are college students satisfi ed with their educational experiences? Each year, the National Student Satisfaction and Priorities Report examines this subject, compiling data from hundreds of thousands of students attending four-year public campuses, four-year private institutions, two-year community colleges, and private two-year career schools.
