Student - Static Metadata

These fields describe attributes of the learner, and we don't expect these to ever change. However, each student will have a row for each term in which they are enrolled, so expect these values to be copied in each row seen for each person-term row in the mart.

Student - Term-based Metadata

These fields are tied to the behaviors or status of students as they relate to academic terms. For example, cumulative GPA will update as more academic terms complete. Similarly, a student may enter the honors program one term but then leave in a later term. Each student will have a row for each term in which they are enrolled, and these values may be distinct when looking across rows per person-term.
