Hello there, 

Has anyone noticed that all UO Counseling Psychology Student Outcome
data goes to at least 2017, except for the Attrition data?
https://education.uoregon.edu/sites/default/files/c-26d_2016-17.pdf 

As you can see in the picture below, attrition data cuts off at 2014 and
has inaccurate data (e.g., 2 students from the 2014-2015 cohort "are no
longer enrolled..."). Something like this might provoke you to ask why
has this not been updated? It might even get you thinking about the
program's integrity.  

Although this presentation of data could merely be coincidental, it is
still unethical and irresponsible for scientists to "publish" incomplete
and inaccurate data. Likewise, interested and incoming students have the
right to know accurate program data, so it should be addressed as soon
as possible. I hope current students and faculty agree with the prior
and will act with empathy, integrity, and transparency in attempt to
remedy and communicate honestly about these imprecise data.  

Figure 1. 

Note. At least three students have left the program since 2014, which is
not represented in the figure.
