Several corrections have been made to
the internal PCW calculator used in SITESPLUS. Those corrections
should cause the values to be more sensitive to changes in race, income,
and group quarters.
In addition, an enhancement has been
made to allow more flexibility with the group quarters portion of the
calculation. Normally, SITESPLUS assumes that the group quarters
figures entered with your sector data represent off-campus students and
uses a 23.5% factor to their PCW. Now you can assign your own
percentage to be used for the group quarters figures by going to [Study
Data] and clicking on the [PCW Data
...] button.
