Excerpt
Excerpt: Educators and policymakers are increasingly concerned that many students graduate from American colleges and universities after having completed an undergraduate curriculum of disconnected, largely unchallenging courses. The newly developed Curriculum Assessment Service National Database is designed to facilitate analyses of course-taking behavior of undergraduate students. Transcript information for over 42, 000 students from a random sample of 100 U.S. colleges and universities will provide researchers an opportunity to analyze student course-taking, student demographics, and academic characteristics for 1991 baccalaureate recipients in liberal arts and sciences.
