---Not available. \1\Academic support excluding expenditures for libraries. \2\Includes all separately budgeted programs, other than research, which are supported by sponsors outside the institution. Examples are training programs, workshops, and training and instructional institutes. For years not shown, most expenditures for these programs are included under "Extension and public service." \3\Generally includes only those expenditures associated with federally funded research and development centers (FFRDCs). \4\Data for 1929-30 to 1945-46 are based on school year enrollment. \5\Constant dollars based on the Consumer Price Index, prepared by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, adjusted to a school-year basis. \6\Expenditures for federally funded research and development centers are included under "Organized research." \7\Included under "Other current expenditures." \8\Expenditures for hospitals included under "Organized activities related to instructional departments." \9\Expenditures were for federal contract courses. \10\Includes current expenditures for physical plant assets. In later years, the educational and general expenditures for physical plant assets are included under "Other general expenditures." NOTE: Institutions of higher education were accredited by an agency or association that was recognized by the U.S. Department of Education, or recognized directly by the Secretary of Education. The degree-granting classification is very similar to the earlier higher education classification, except that it includes some additional institutions, primarily 2-year colleges, and excludes a few higher education institutions that did not award associate's or higher degrees. (See Guide to Sources for details.) The data in this table reflect limitations of data availability and comparability. Major changes in data collection forms in 1965-66 and 1974-75 cause significant data comparability problems among the three mostly consistent time periods, 1929-30 to 1963-64, 1965-66 to 1973-74, and 1974-75 to 1995-96. The largest problems affect Hospitals, Independent operations, Organized research, Other sponsored programs, Extension and public service, and Scholarships and fellowships. Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding.
