The Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) is a system of survey components that collects data from about 7,500 institutions that provide postsecondary education across the United States. IPEDS collects institution-level data on student enrollment, graduation rates, student charges, program completions, faculty, staff, and finances. These data are used at the federal and state level for policy analysis and development; at the institutional level for benchmarking and peer analysis; and by students and parents, through the College Navigator (http://collegenavigator.ed.gov), an online tool to aid in the college search process. For more information about IPEDS, see http://nces.ed.gov/ipeds. What Is the Purpose of This Report? The Data Feedback Report is intended to provide institutions a context for examining the data they submitted to IPEDS. The purpose of this report is to provide institutional executives a useful resource and to help improve the quality and comparability of IPEDS data. What Is in This Report?

In Grateful Memory R H B (-) R A D (-) M H R (-) J R S (-) W G S (-) So many friends and colleagues—from the faculty, from the sta, from the ranks of the alumni—have helped me during the writing of this History that I dare not even begin to list them all. I hope that they will forgive me if I do not mention them, one by one, but instead single out a few people whose contributions have been necessary and continuing. First, I want to acknowledge the authors of the een “In Retrospect” essays, all of them students during the Scales presidency. I hope that readers of this History will appreciate, as much as I do, their memories and observations as providing a perspective on campus life that I would not have been qualied to give. Members of the sta of the Z. Smith Reynolds Library have been unfailingly ready to assist me, but I must name, as having been particu- larly helpful, Julia Bradford from the University archives. I don’t know how many times she has opened the locked door of the sixth oor stacks so that I could explore papers and documents that I needed to consult.
