[quote=Anonymous]Peer colleges is how colleges compare assessments such as faculty and student satisfaction, outcomes etc. and to identify a group of schools they should seek for faculty reviews for promotion and tenure cases. It's part about matching "relative ranking" but it's more importantly about looking for schools with similar size, funding structures, academic structures etc. So a tech university is going to have as a peer school other tech universities, a liberal arts college other LACs etc. There aren't perfect matches usually so they choose some schools that match on a range of factors and not others and try to get a good enough list for their purposes.[/quote]
