How big is the program signal?
Sociology accounts for 8.5% of reported programs at Talladega College, which is bigger than 99% of schools in this field set and 5.7x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 60 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?

Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $32,229 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $24,573 below the $56,802 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
