Data

Data comes from The Cooperative Institutional Research Program (CIRP) administered by the Higher Education Research Institute at UCLA https://www.heri.ucla.edu/monographs/TheAmericanFreshman2014.pdf

It consists of several types of information:

  1. Information obtained from the survey of freshmen about their opinions, politics,race, wealth, social status etc in file freshmen_survey.csv
  2. Information about institutions participating in the 2014 CIRP Freshman Survey in file institutions.csv
  3. Estimated standard errors of percentages for comparison groups of various sizes in file standard_errors.csv

Preparation

The script works with python 3. To install required modules run

pip install -r scripts/requirements.txt

Also make note that java must also be installed on the system. To get the final data, use script process.py to extract resources from the file TheAmericanFreshman2014.pdf. The script splits the document into pages and parses tables which are then merged into three resources.

to get freshmen_survey.csv, institutions.csv, standard_errors.csv
