Dive Brief:

• A new Texas website offers prospective students a way to compare tuition, fees, and potential earnings at the state's public universities.
• The site's reports can be customized based on a student's location, income, and SAT scores.
• Texas' higher-education data set is robust but imperfect — the earnings information is only from graduates who stay in Texas, for instance.

Dive Insight:

One example of the outcomes laid bare on the site:  Anthropology graduates from 2002 make an average of $46,000 after 10 years. Economics majors make twice that.
