College Scorecard reports school-wide earnings and price, not per-major outcomes for individual colleges. Program share is a concentration signal, not a promise of department quality. Use it as a proxy, then verify department-level outcomes with the school.
Evidence used here: federal program-share data (4.3%), school-wide average net price ($16,732), school-wide ten-year median earnings ($49,175), and peer averages from 448 schools reporting a positive signal in this field. Evidence not included: department-level salary, placement rate, course quality, licensure eligibility, certification, or exam pass-rate outcomes.

How big is the program signal?
Radio, Television, and Digital Communication accounts for 4.3% of reported programs at Southern Oregon University, which is bigger than 95% of schools in this field set and 3.4x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 118 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $49,175 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $5,892 below the $55,067 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
