Universities should publish more information about course outcomes, but disclosure should help applicants ask better questions rather than manufacture a league table. A single employment percentage can conceal differences in region, subject and the kinds of work graduates seek. Small courses create another problem: detailed tables may identify individuals. That risk is not a reason for silence. Institutions can combine several years, suppress tiny categories and explain where comparison becomes unreliable. Useful transparency therefore needs both numbers and limits. Applicants deserve evidence about what happened, while universities must show how the evidence was produced. A dashboard is most honest when it opens a conversation rather than pretending to finish one. What is most strongly implied?
