CAUSAL DISCIPLINE
“Paul Mitchell the School-Tinley Park graduates earn $X” — not “Paul Mitchell the School-Tinley Park makes you earn $X”
Median earnings describe what cohorts earned. They do not describe what attending Paul Mitchell the School-Tinley Park caused. Selection effects (who admits, who enrolls, who completes) are real. We publish federal data with strict descriptive phrasing — and link the methodology where you can read about the limitations directly.
