Stats by State
The Chronicle of Higher Education’s annual Almanac issue is out, and has some interesting state-by-state statistics.
For example:
While some people think Oklahoma has too many colleges — 57 in all — that’s nothing compared to California’s 408, New York’s 308 and Florida’s 169.
The largest student population at one physical campus is at Miami Dade College, with 54,169 students.
In 2005, the state with the highest proportion of adults with a bachelor’s degree or higher is the District of Columbia, with 45 percent. Oklahoma came in at 22 percent, fifth lowest in the nation.
There’s lots more in this 92-page magazine, so I’ll share more in later posts.
