  1. To measure how prominent are diversity and inclusion on a college's website, we divided the number of hits on a search query for those two words by the number of hits on a search for the query excellence OR achievement, both queries using the Google API. If the latter query does not report at least 100 hits, then the value entered is N/A. The data were collected in February 2014.
  2. Information on majors and programs of study is from the Completions Data File, 2011-12 (Provisional release) as reported by the National Center for Education Statistics (http://nces.ed.gov/ipeds). Top majors are the ones that have the most conferred degrees. If it says "is in" rather than just "is", then various top majors were combined into a new attribute. For example, colleges whose top major is "in engineering" will include a college whose top major is chemical engineering, another whose top major is electrical engineering, and so on.
