Good resource for using (and not using) OPEIDs

Bob Kelchen, a higher education faculty member at Seton Hall University, has helpfully written a blog post summarizing how different institutions use their OPEIDs, the number that this template refers to as "IPEDS ID." Editors are cautioned that university systems make inconsistent use of these IDs and how information is aggregated at the campus or system level. The blog post has some examples of this and links to other resources that discuss these issues in more detail. ElKevbo (talk) 14:31, 21 August 2017 (UTC)
