Multi-decade shifts are reported separately in the Long Arc section, since 25-year tuition drift isn't really an anomaly.

CAUSAL DISCIPLINE
“Luther Rice College & Seminary graduates earn $X” — not “Luther Rice College & Seminary makes you earn $X”
Median earnings describe what cohorts earned. They do not describe what attending Luther Rice College & Seminary caused. Selection effects (who admits, who enrolls, who completes) are real. We publish federal data with strict descriptive phrasing — and link the methodology where you can read about the limitations directly.
