Authorization Reciprocity as Market Infrastructure: SARA and the Interstate Online Higher Education Market - results replication package

# Replication Package ## Manuscript Authorization Reciprocity as Market Infrastructure: SARA and the Interstate Online Higher Education Market ## Package Structure - `data/clean/`: cleaned public-source data used by the clean-data replication path. - `code/`: replication scripts and bundled source code. - `outputs/`: regenerated manuscript tables, appendix tables, figures, and figure source data. - `docs/`: data documentation, source provenance, raw-data instructions, and exhibit crosswalk. ## Path 1: From Clean Data ```bash python3 -m venv .venv . .venv/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txt ./run_from_clean_data.sh ``` This path uses `data/clean/`, rebuilds model and support tables in `work/`, regenerates all final outputs under `outputs/`, and runs the smoke test. ## Path 2: From Raw Public Data ```bash python3 -m venv .venv . .venv/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txt ./run_from_raw_data.sh --ucanaccess-jar drivers/ucanaccess-uber.jar ``` Raw IPEDS staging and UCanAccess setup are described in `docs/raw_data_download_instructions.md`. The raw path rebuilds the distance-education panel from public IPEDS Access Database files, acquires public NC-SARA sources, estimates models, generates support tables, regenerates final outputs, and runs the smoke test. ## Main Outputs - `outputs/tables/manuscript_table_02_market_growth_concentration.csv` - `outputs/tables/manuscript_table_03_top_five_national_providers.csv` - `outputs/tables/manuscript_table_04_current_sara_participation.csv` - `outputs/tables/manuscript_table_05_diagnostic_timing_associations.csv` - `outputs/tables/top_providers_by_sector_2012_2019_2024.csv` - `outputs/tables/event_diagnostics_full_appendix.csv` - `outputs/tables/event_time_coefficients_for_figures.csv` - `outputs/figures/fig1_sara_diffusion.pdf` - `outputs/figures/fig2_online_enrollment_margins.pdf` - `outputs/figures/fig3_concentration_by_sector.pdf` - `outputs/figures/fig4_current_sara_participation.pdf` - `outputs/figures/fig5_event_diagnostics_small_multiples.pdf` ## Documentation - `docs/raw_data_download_instructions.md` - `docs/source_provenance.csv` - `docs/table_figure_crosswalk.csv` - `docs/clean_data_dictionary.csv` - `PACKAGE_MANIFEST.csv` - `CHECKSUMS.sha256`
