5/6/2011: Nebraska-Lincoln is no longer a member of the AAU. This was not one of CDHE's criteria in selecting peers, however.  In addition, the situations that led to exclusion of Rutgers and Penn State from the peer list have now changed.  Because CDHE will take some time to change Boulder's peer list, if indeed it does at all, we will leave this list unmodified.

Peer list revised 7/24/07 and published as page 9 of http://highered.colorado.gov/CCHE/Meetings/2007/sep/sep07iic-atta.pdf

For use by CDHE and NCHEMS in "peer gap analysis" as described in http://highered.colorado.gov/CCHE/Meetings/2007/sep/sep07iic.pdf

All schools on this list are members of the AAU, the American Association of Universities. None have medical schools. Public AAU's without medical schools that are excluded include

• Rutgers - Financial reporting includes branch campuses, appropriately excluded
• Penn State - IPEDS financial reports are under FASB reporting guidelines, not GASB like other publics; appropriately excluded.
• Purdue - Don't know why excluded
