- catalog abstract ""This volume of New Directions for Institutional Research has assembled both conceptual and practical information that will give solid grounding to researchers in selecting the best approach to cost analysis. A broad description of the concepts that underpin the economics of higher education is provided, as is a discussion of the full range of cost drivers that should be considered when attempting to measure the cost of a college education. Fundamental issues such as understanding and defining the data elements in a good cost study, building consensus on campus with respect to the quality and use of cost data, and identifying appropriate sources for comparative, interinstitutional data are all addressed. Special attention is given to the cost information needs of senior campus administrators and to national data collections that have significant implications for institutional data analysts."--Jacket.".
