I noticed that Summer 2011 has 2762 records, but Summer 2010 has 193 and 2012 has 177.

Certain course subjects are more affected than others. ACCY, BADM, ECON, MATH, MCB and PSYC have many more records than I'd expect based on the surrounding years.

I checked ECON 102, and the records may be from a different term. The dataset has multiple entries per instructor for SU11, and the dataset shows many instructors not listed in the SU11 class schedule for that course.

Winter 2014 semester doesn't exist on Course Explorer but there are 8 records in the GPA dataset.

The most recent data in the CSV is from 2017:

I think someone (I'm willing to help if nobody else wants) should copy the data from 2018-2023 over here. (See "Data Source" in the README) Thanks!

When adding data to the Student by State Dataset I noticed that it is not stated what semester the data is from. I had to double check with the original data source to ensure that I used the correct semester for additions maybe the readme could be updated to add that the data is from the Fall.

On line 776 there is the following,
2019,Spring,2019-sp,ANTH,364,"Performing ""America""
The extraneous quotation before America causes a bug when parsing the CSV showing the title for this row as
Performing "America"\n2019,Spring,2019-sp,ANTH,368,\'America\' in the World"
This results in ANTH 368 being omitted as well

I thought it might be nice to credit the person responsible for getting this data released:

Maybe include it in the readme?

In the fa2018.csv, I noticed that most of the STAT400+ courses only contain the GPA data for GR (graduate) sections, but, according to course explorer, our university also offered several UG (undergrad) sections for each STAT400+ courses.

From README, I know that "Based on analysis, courses with 20 or fewer students were excluded (the smallest course in the dataset has 21 students)." However, the number of students in UG sections are usually higher than the number of students in GR sections, so what should be excluded is the GPA of GR sections but rather those of UG sections.

Take FA18's STAT432 as an example. The actual number of enrollment of 2GR is 19 and that of 2UG is 53. However, if you do the addition from A+ to F for CRN 70222 (section 2GR), the number of students is 76. Therefore, I was wondering if there were some errors while conducting the data cleaning/integration, which caused the inconsistency of the raw data.
