Data Quality and Statistical Issues<br />
Since the Bulletin relies primarily on self-reported<br />
data, we grade the quality of the information based<br />
on the degree to which we have independent verification<br />
of its reliability. The data quality grade is not<br />
a rating of the institution’s performance. In the statistical<br />
tables that follow, the average values are<br />
displayed for each indicator. For more details on<br />
both Data Quality and Statistical Issues, see Appendix<br />
