SUPPORT PAID TO STUDENTS IN THIS MAJOR

Proportioned headcount of students on October, 1998 payroll: 67 (71.3% of enrollment)

	Fellows	Trainees	PAs	RAs	TAs

The above figures represent the mix of support types for students listing this major as a first major. Students in this table may be paid by a different department. These figures do not represent the proportions of dollars paid in each category.

Each student who lists the major as first major and who is paid as a Fellow, Trainee, PA, RA, or TA anywhere in the University adds one to the number of students supported in the major. Some students receive more than one kind of support. Fractions are apportioned among support categories as the proportion that the category's support is of the total support for that student. For example, a student with a 33% appointment as an RA and a 33% appointment as a TA adds .5 to the number of RAs and .5 to the number of TAs no matter how much the student is paid: that student has a total 66% appointment, half of which is TA and half RA.

The above figures are the dollars paid last year by the department responsible for this major to students with graduate appointments. Some of this money may have been paid to students in majors outside the department.
