This scatterplot displays colleges from the Forbes Best Colleges of 2019 list, plotting net price on the x-axis against alumni salary on the y-axis. Each dot represents a school, with color distinguishing public from private institutions, revealing that private schools cost more but show no clear salary advantage. The visualization is built using Vega-Lite, d3.csv for data loading, and rendered as an SVG via the vega-lite-api, with custom configuration for axis styling and tooltips.

AI-generated description

A program that loads and parses some CSV data from the Forbes Best Colleges of 2019 list.

The visualization shows the distribution of colleges plotted by net price along the X axis and Alumni Salary along the Y Axis. Color indicates the university is either private or public.

There doesn't appear to be much correlation between the cost of a school and alumni salaries. There is a clear difference in the costs of public vs private schools.
