Confirming filtering variables

[btskinner]

Based on my understanding of the new INDEX column in the data dictionary, the current version of rscorecard limits the user to the following variables when filtering with sc_filter():

> sc_dict(".", filter_vars = T)

The following variables can be used in sc_filter():

Is this correct?

If so, I would suggest adding opeflag (developer-friendly name: title_iv.eligibility_type) since splitting/filtering by Title IV participation is a common analytic decision.

Yes, this is correct. I will add opeflag for you this week.
Are there any additional filters you can think of that might be useful?

[btskinner]

Thanks. I don't have anything else at the moment. Sometimes people using rscorecard contact me about such things, though, so I'll pass those requests along.

[brownpl]

Groovy, thanks! school.title_iv.eligibility_type should now be available for filtering. I'll be adding it to the documentation during the next data release, so it will be undocumented for now. Let me know if that is an issue for you and I can work something out.

Thanks again for the updates to your program to support our latest changes.

[btskinner]

Unless someone asks, I'll just wait until the next data release. I assume that'll be soon based on your typical release schedule. And I'm glad to make the changes. Thanks for the support on your end.
