Function of Peers and Benchmarks

•

Current Peer List

•

Developed in 1994 by Peter Ewell of The National Center for Higher Education Management Systems (NCHEMS)

•

Revised in 1998

•

Current Benchmark List

•

Pre-dates institutional records (created sometime before 1994 )

•

Uses

• Faculty Salaries • • Teaching Loads Tuition Schedules • Budget Alignment • Accreditation • External Funding (i.e. Grant Applications) • • IPEDS Data Feedback Report Used by other institutions for comparison • Surveys supply peer data to prospective students and parents to compare cost, graduation rates, and student indebtedness 2

Methodology

•

Statistical Clustering

7

Clustering According to Student Characteristics

•

8 IPEDS variables based on student characteristics were selected:

1. Transfer-in undergraduate enrollment 2. SAT Critical Reading 25th percentile score of first-time undergraduates 3. SAT Critical Reading 75th percentile score of first-time undergraduates 4. Number of Doctor's degrees awarded 5. Revenues from tuition and fees per FTE enrollment 6. Graduation Rate, Overall, First-Time Full-Time Undergraduates 7. SAT Math 75th percentile score of first-time undergraduates 8. Retention Rate Fall 2009 to Fall 2010 8

MANOA X Axis Factors: SAT Scores, Graduation Rate, Retention Rate, Revenues from Tuition and Fees

Clustering According to Research Characteristics

•

Repeat process for Mānoa’s Cluster (

Green Group

), Benchmarks (

Orange Group

), and High Benchmarks (

Blue Group

).

•

4 IPEDS variables related to research were selected:

1. Government grants and contracts as a percent of total core revenues: Fiscal year 2010 2. Revenues from government grants and contracts per FTE enrollment: Fiscal year 2010 3. Research expenses per FTE student: Fiscal year 2010 4. Research expenses as percent of total core expenses: Fiscal year 2010 11
