IPEDS fall enrollment age files #37

Closed mchingos closed 6 years ago

mchingos commented 6 years ago

"college ipeds fall-enrollment age sex" does not produce sex breakdowns by default, and I think it should.

Also, the default in both the age and age sex files appears to be to include breakdowns by level_of_study but only totals by ftpt. Should we be consistent about this, and have the default to be breakdowns by both or neither? And make whatever the default is clear in the documentation?

Also, degree_seeking breakdowns only appear to be available in 1991 and 1993. @ericatheresa can we mention this in the documentation?

And asking for breakdowns by sex and FTPT does not appear to work for some reason:

. educationdata using "college ipeds fall-enrollment age sex", sub("ftpt=1,2 sex=1,2 year=2015") clea

As to the first question, I leave that to @ericatheresa.

For the second question, I'm going to start an issue in the main repository, as it looks like these filters should work but produce a 500 error. We're currently hunting for all of these, so thanks for finding one!

This is no longer producing an error, but it does not filter as it should. I've added this as an issue for Dave in the API.

This is now resolved per the link above my previous comment by Dave. If you have any other issues like this, please let us know! Closing.
