Hi Editors, I'm Robin, here as part of my work for Beutler Ink on behalf of The Culinary Institute. I have a request to update some of the basic statistics and make a few other minor changes in the article.

I propose changing:

In the infobox

The founder parameter to "founders" and adding Frances Roth and Katharine Cramer Angell to the list of founders - Done I also revised the text. No sources mention the New Haven Restaurant Association. The Yale source calls the founding entity the New Haven Restaurant Institute. STEMinfo (talk) 23:07, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The chairman to John C. Metz Jr. to reflect recent changes as supported by this source
The number of academic staff to 197; number of undergrads to 3,005 (Fall 2022); number of postgrads to 119 (Fall 2022), all based on this National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) report

In the Faculty section:

The first sentence to read "As of Fall 2022, the school had 130 full-time and 67 part-time faculty members." per the NCES link

In the Admissions section:

The Princeton Review selectivity rating to reflect the current number of 75 out of 99 per the updated report
The applications received to 1,887 in fall 2022, with 95% accepted, per NCES
The SAT range of accepted students being 930 to 1200 and ACT composite range being 17 to 26 per this report from College Board

In the Enrollment section:

Enrollment to 3,005 undergrads (415 transfers) and 119 graduates; 95% of students being enrolled full time per the NCES
18% of students being from New York and 12% of students being international per the NCES
82% of students being 24 or younger (replacing the sentence "The student body has an average age of 22 years") per the NCES
Average GPA being 3.0 and 68% of students living on campus per Princeton Review
Replacing the second paragraph with the following, which is more up to date

Extended content

As of 2024, the school offered certificates in culinary arts;^[1] associate degrees in baking and pastry arts and culinary arts;^[2] bachelor's degrees in food business management, hospitality management, applied food studies, and culinary science, as well as culinary arts and baking and pastry arts degrees for transfer students;^[3] and master's degrees in culinary arts, food business, Sustainable food systems, and wine and beverage management.^[4]

Please let me know what you think! Cheers, BINK Robin (talk) 15:32, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@BINK Robin: The edit backlog is getting long. It would speed things up if you posted the actual text you want added. See my draft doc for the TextDiff suggestion. User:STEMinfo/COI_edit_requests_for_novices#Showing_before_and_after_text_side_by_side STEMinfo (talk) 23:07, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@STEMinfo: I'm happy to provide the request in that format! I'll break it up just a little because I think it will be easier to look at.

This makes some statistical updates and updates the current chairman.

Faculty (note, I made some additional tweaks to this part of the request describing faculty composition)

Extended content

This makes some statistical updates, offers a clearer timeframe, as well as offers some updated language on the current faculty composition to better reflect the CIA's current faculty.

As of Fall 2022, the school had 130 full-time and 67 part-time faculty members.^[3] The school's faculty comprises instructors and professionals from food, beverage, and hospitality industries, including liberal arts instructors, including American Culinary Federation Certified Master Chefs, Retail Bakers of America Certified Master Bakers, sommeliers, authors, dietitians, food industry executives, historians, and other academics.^[5]

Admissions

Extended content

This makes some needed statistical updates and removes an outdated table for which there is no data to bring it up to date. I'd also question if editors think it is necessary to include the College Board Selectivity Rating, but will defer to the community's thoughts on that. If the selectivity rating is removed, the box below has the updated text.

As of April 2024, The Princeton Review gave the university an admissions selectivity rating of 75 out of 99.^[4]

In fall 2022, the school received 1,887 applications, of which 95 percent were accepted.^[5] The admitted students' academic profile showed an SAT range of 930 to 1200 and an ACT composite range of 17 to 26.^[6] The school began accepting the Common Application in 2016, after becoming a member on August 1 of that year.^[3]

Enrollment

Extended content

This removes a table that has no data to update it, and otherwise updates statistics and degree offerings, mirroring the current language as closely as possible. The templates don't want to play nicely with the tables, so I've separated out the updated table below.

In fall 2022, the university had an enrollment of 3,005 undergraduate students, of which 415 were transfer students, and 119 graduate students; 95 percent of students were enrolled full-time. Of all the students, 18 percent were from New York and 12 percent were international students. Approximately 82 percent of the student body was 24 years of age or younger.^[5] The average high school grade point average was 3.0, and 68 percent of undergraduate students lived on campus.^[6]

As of 2024, the school offered certificates in culinary arts;^[11] associate degrees in baking and pastry arts and culinary arts;^[12] bachelor's degrees in food business management, hospitality management, applied food studies, and culinary science, as well as culinary arts and baking and pastry arts degrees for transfer students;^[13] and master's degrees in culinary arts, food business, Sustainable food systems, and wine and beverage management.^[14]
