NOTE: The data in this table reflect limitations of data availability and comparability. Major changes in data collection forms in 1965-66 and 1974-75 cause significant data comparability problems among the three mostly consistent time periods, 1929-30 to 1963-64, 1965-66 to 1973-74, and 1974-75 to the present. The largest problems affect Hospitals, Independent operations, Organized research, Other sponsored programs, Extension and public service, and Scholarships and fellowships.
