Em-dash not being converted correctly to graph

[vivhou]

Using an em dash causes R to convert this into something else (example is from Financial Aid- Federal):

Hm I'm confused on this one @vivhou . The graph you screenshotted is fig 02_006* (in cost_of_educating -> endowments), and neither this graph nor graphs in Finacial Aid -> Federal have em dashes. Do you mean en dashes? In the federal financial aid section, en dashes seem to be displaying fine.

Not sure if these ≤ in the screenshot above should be en dashes?

Graph created here: https://github.com/UrbanInstitute/ed-data/blob/master/scripts/get-data/endowments.R#L130

With category labels here: https://github.com/UrbanInstitute/ed-data/blob/master/scripts/get-data/endowments.R#L108-L111

But I can't run the scripts, because they depend on a scraper here: https://github.com/UrbanInstitute/ed-data/blob/master/scripts/get-data/endowments.R#L108-L111

Which I don't have access to. Do you?

Hmm I'm actually confused as to why I screenshotted this graph, it might have been an error. This also might have been an old bug that I was able to fix, sorry if this confused you!

i don't know what scraper Hannah used as I never created this graph, hopefully if I do need to recreate this graph, Victoria can send me the data directly.

@vivhou unless you object, I'd propose closing this issue, since we can't figure out what the problem is
