datasets

Provides tools and demonstrates methods for working with individual
undergraduate student-level records (registrar's data) in 'R'. Tools include
filters for program codes, data sufficiency, and timely completion. Methods
include gathering blocs of records, computing quantitative metrics such as
graduation rate, and creating charts to visualize comparisons. 'midfieldr'
interacts with practice data provided in 'midfielddata', a data package with
an installed size of about 24 Mb available via a 'drat' repository.
