This source uses language that greatly contrasts the language that the University uses. College Factual was written in order for individuals to navigate the online platform pre-enrollment to a college or university in order for the individual to conceptualize the price of the University. 

The language in college factual is effective in creating stable and stoic numbers to associate with a University. By using facts and figures, it is easy for individuals who are using the website to visualize their debts. There is no coded language; this tool is meant to be unbiased and allows all users to see their options purely based on money. 

Because the site covers colleges across the nation, it does not have a political tone or bias. Interestingly enough, the language surrounding the price of Miami is discouraging. It eludes that finances at Miami are not as they seem, and suggests that it is difficult to pay for. The contrast between what Miami considers to be Affordable and what other schools deem as Affordable is extremely clear.

That said, a “hidden curriculum” is, by nature, obscured or unacknowledged, which means that many of its lessons and messages are difficult to perceive or measure for any number of reasons. For example, long-standing policies may become so deeply embedded in a school culture that people simply forget to question them, or a school faculty that prides itself on celebrating multicultural diversity may find … behaviors that might contradict that self-perceived identity. Every school will always have some form of hidden curriculum.

The Cost of Diversity

"Economic Diversity And Student Outcomes At Miami (Ohio)." Nytimes.com. N.p., 2019. Web. 28 Mar. 2019.

Economic Mobility is extremely low for Miami University, In fact, Miami is among the lowest scoring schools in this area. Why is it that our poorest students are not moving out of their income quintiles?

In 2015, the five income quintiles were: 

Lowest : Upper Limit - $22,800

Second : Upper Limit - $43,511

Third : Upper Limit -$72,001

Fourth : Upper Limit - $112,262

Highest Fifth : Upper Limit - $214,462

Top 5% : Upper Limit - None

Also, note that the ability to move from the lowest income quintile to the highest is <1%, and is considered “average”. How is this small amount of mobility considered affordable for the other 99%?

Low economic diversity at Miami University is a decade long trend. There have been minimal changes as to what members of what class come to Miami. The outcomes for Miami students are widely stratified. However, the outcomes follow a common trend; those that came to Miami with a wealthier background leave Miami to become wealthier. Middle class students are granted varying degrees of upward mobility, with 54% of Miami students coming from the top 20%. We have some of the lowest expected outcome for students from the bottom 20%.

This breakdown is especially important when we are focusing on the publics at Miami. The dominant public at Miami is an overwhelming majority that can afford the vast array of expenses at Miami. The price of Miami is seen as an affordable one because the percentage of Miami students who do not experience upward mobility is less than 10%.

Affordability has been completely reframed by this article. 

In order to understand why “Affordable” means something different to Miami than other universities, I had to study student demographics. As much as we focus on cultural diversity, there is little to no economic diversity within the University. As a low-income indivual, these numbers were bleak and disparaging to read. Not even the positive messages on Miami’s homepage about job success and rewarding academics could make this reality less grim for me. 

The ongoing research NYT did on Miami redefines my vision of “opportunity” at Miami. Not only are these trends persistent, but they are resistant. The changes in class opportunity and success are minimal.

This article was not promoted by MU or any other colleges, and seems to have only reached a private audience. The shocking amount of upper-class individuals reoriented my personal view of my positionality as a student.

This article leaves me wondering- Is Miami preparing me at all? Or did they take my money, knowing I was doomed from the start? 

[weloveandhonorwealth-blog]

“From 2004 to 2014, Ohio’s 14 public universities have more than doubled their debt, reaching a combined total of about $6.7 billion. Of those universities, Miami ranks third in debt accumulation, trailing only behind Ohio State University’s (OSU) $2.6 billion and the University of Cincinnati’s (UC) $1.2 billion in debt“- The Miami Student

http://miamistudent.net/ohio-public-university-debt-hits-6-7-billion/

The Miami Student highlights all of the larger public universities in Ohio and breaks their debts into pieces. “Though Miami has nearly doubled its debt in the last five years, it is not alone”. This language is trying to soften the reality of the situation. This article was written in order to combat the negativity around Miami’s growing debt. Because of additions and renovations to the campus, the debt level of MU has increased dramatically. 

Within the language of the Miami Student, we see that the authors are trying to create positive overtones when describing Miami’s debt circumstances, without truly deciphering their meaning. This is particularly useful and applicable for my project because it is from a Miami student perspective and voice. By the University allowing this to be published, they are silently recognizing their debts. 

If you took the Miami portion out of context of the entire article, I do not think it would have been published. This article serves to further assist Miami as an institution by creating visuals that validate our expenses. 

To make Miami’s debt seem normal and comparable to other popular universities allows those in attendance to ignore the severity of the situation. A Miami student can interpret this to mean “At least we aren't 1.2 billion dollars in debt!” 

However, if you were to further break these numbers down, you would find that Ohio state averages around $18,000 of debt per student, and Miami averages around $34,400 per student. Reframing these figures is extremely important. It is easy to presume that Miami is better off than other Universities by how the figures here have been presented.
