Megan – Please put the assignment name and your name on the post heading. Your heading is too similar to the blog post headings I use for my class posts.
An in-state student would expect to pay $24,916 for the 2017-2018 school year, while an out-of-state student would pay $40,162. Out-of-state students pay $15,246 more than in-state students. Out-of-state tuition increased the most from the 2014-2015 to 2017-2018 school year. The raw change was $4,008 and the percent change was 20%.*Excellent, good job*
5) Write a lead for a story based on your analysis. – This lead needs to attribute the source of the data:
Out-of-state tuition rose $4,008 from 2014-2015 to 2017-2018 at the University of Arkansas, a 19.7% increase, according to the National Center for Education Statistics.
Data shows a 20% increase in tuition for out-of-state students in the last four years.
Other information that would be important: How many in-state students vs out-of-state students attend the University of Arkansas? What scholarships are available for students? A good source would be someone who works at the Registrar and/or Financial Aid Office.
8 of 10 points. Problems with lead.
