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 (1.4%), school-wide average net price ($15,415), school-wide ten-year median earnings ($49,500), and peer averages from 73 schools reporting a positive signal in this field.
