College Fact File

Most colleges and universities in the United States publish an annual "fact file" or "fact book" which presents the outside world with a view into our data. These range across topics such as:

  • Applicants' standardized test scores
  • Where students are enrolling from (US states and foreign countries)
  • How much it costs to attend the institution
  • What are the institution's retention and graduation rates
  • What academic disciplines students are studying
  • Demographic makeup of students, faculty, and staff

This particular interactive fact file, which comes from Davidson College, is accessible via https://go.davidson.edu/FactFile, and uses a number of Power BI features, including:

  • Deneb visuals
  • Shape map visuals with custom geoJSON
  • The "new card" visual released in summer 2023
  • Lots of page navigators and bookmark navigators
  • Synchronized slicers
