Citation Comment: First-time Earmark: When determining whether the earmark was a first-time earmark, the Department of Education examined only fiscal years 2004 through 2007. The earmark was identified as a prior earmark if the recipient received a Department of Education earmark in any of those years, whether or not the award was for the same project activities. All of the earmarks specified in the College Cost Reduction and Access Act (P.L. 110-084, Title I, Sec. 103) were defined as first-time earmarks for the purpose of this exercise.
