Department of Education in Minnesota

Education awards tagged to Minnesota

Department of Education as awarding agency, Minnesota as place-of-performance: 2,350 records summing to $5,777,078,307.88. A Department of Education award coded outside MN is out. An award in Minnesota from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Minnesota (MN) excludes Wisconsin, Iowa, North Dakota, and South Dakota. A Superior-coded award is Wisconsin.

Two thousand three hundred fifty awards is a mid-count Education file: thicker than a thousand-row formula list, still far below an assistance flood. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 2,350 as 2,350 unique enrollment, unique districts, or named universities. The overlay Department of Education in Minnesota is the both-keys table. Minnesota federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Education is the agency book without an MN filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Minneapolis and St. Paul are unpublished. Do not split $5,777,078,307.88 across the river without a new extract. Correlation is not causation: Minnesota did not “cause” $5,777,078,307.88 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 091 × MN only.

Twin Cities folklore is not a USAspending field

$5,777,078,307.88 does not measure enrollment, unique districts, or named universities. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 091 and an MN place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 2,350 awards as a census of enrollment, unique districts, or named universities. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Minnesota federal spending or Department of Education matched $5,777,078,307.88 and 2,350, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Wisconsin, Iowa, and North Dakota Education joins are other pairs, not addends.
