IPEDS instructions state that the cip counts are NOT unduplicated
specs_FE requests 1 MajorCip per student for even-year CIP-based ipeds breakouts, but IPEDS actually allows students to be double-reported.
Will need to update intake files specs and code to account for this. Maybe use flags instead of a single column.
May also want to consider breaking specs into 3 groups:
-always required?
-for odd years?
-for even years?
Not vital to update for 2021 since CIPs are not reported this year, but should be updated overall.
