Idea for how to handle institution types #109

Description

@AlisonLanski

If we want to expand beyond 4-yr degree granting, we need some way to make sure we process code correctly for different institution types.

  • One idea would be to add a bunch of flags/arguments to the produce scripts and then pass them through.
  • Another idea would be to add an additional column to each starting DF with enough information to make a decision
  • Another idea would be to add one more argument to the produce scripts which is a DF with the flag info for a school, similar to what IPEDS asks on the front screen about the instructions. This could be a saved file that is used over and over again --- and maybe one that can be saved locally? Like how we save the driver address in connectr? Would have to see how to do this for a public package, and also, what would happen in updates? Hrm.
