Abstract | The statistical compilations found in this bulletin are based on data gathered by means of two questionnaires--one on faculty, students and degrees; and the other on receipts, expenditures, and property. These questionnaires were sent to all the 1,706 institutions listed in Office of Education Bulletin 1936, No. 1, "Educational Directory: 1936." That list included universities, colleges, teachers colleges, independent professional and technological schools, junior colleges, and normal schools. Of the 1,706 questionnaires sent out, usable returns on the personnel blank were received from 1,584 institutions. In studying statistical tables on higher education with a view to determining trends the factor of comparability of items and of totals from one biennium to another looms large. This factor is affected by: (1) the number of institutions reporting the various items at different times; (2) variations in interpretation of the items in the questionnaires; and (3) changes made by the Office of Education in the questions asked or in the manner of editing the returns received. Variations among institutions in their usage of items contained in the questionnaires still constitute a major source of difficulty in statistical compilations in higher education. The Office of Education goes carefully over all reports and edits them with a view to uniformity of interpretation, but in spite of progress toward uniformity it is recognized quite frankly that certain differences in recording data still exist among the institutions. This bulletin is divided into six parts, as follows: (1) Part I--General Findings and Interpretations; (2) Part II--Summaries for the United States; (3) Part III--Summaries by States; (4) Part IV--Detail by Institutions; (5) Part V--Statistics of Nurse-Training Schools, 1935-36; and (6) Part VI--Land Grant Colleges and Universities. (Contains 48 tables, 3 figures, and 4 footnotes.) [Best copy available has been provided.] (ERIC). |
