Problem

Campus metrics needed a clearer comparison layer

Raw comparisons were difficult to scan quickly, especially for stakeholders looking for differences across groups.

Result

Clearer stakeholder review

The dashboard brings the most meaningful differences forward through filters, summaries, and visible context.
