Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | How did the Fund perform during the reporting period? For the 12 months ended December 31, 2024, the Fund performed roughly in line with its benchmark index. U.S. economic growth hovered around 3% on a year-over-year basis for much of the period, and consumer price inflation trended lower, falling below 3% in July. The Federal Reserve began cutting short-term interest rates in September, which boosted stock returns, as did the prospect of tax cuts and deregulation under the incoming administration. Each of the benchmark’s 11 industry sectors recorded positive returns for the 12 months. Financials, information technology, and industrials contributed most to the benchmark’s return. |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | How did the Fund perform during the reporting period? For the 12 months ended December 31, 2024, the Fund performed roughly in line with its benchmark, the CRSP US Mid Cap Index. U.S. economic growth hovered around 3% on a year-over-year basis for much of the period, and consumer price inflation trended lower, falling below 3% in July. The Federal Reserve began cutting short-term interest rates in September, which boosted stock returns, as did the prospect of tax cuts and deregulation under the incoming administration. Nine of the benchmark’s 11 industry sectors posted positive returns. Industrials and financials contributed most to the benchmark’s total return. Other notable contributors included technology, utility, and consumer discretionary companies. Health care and basic materials stocks detracted. |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | How did the Fund perform during the reporting period? For the 12 months ended December 31, 2024, the Fund performed roughly in line with its benchmark, the CRSP US Mid Cap Index. U.S. economic growth hovered around 3% on a year-over-year basis for much of the period, and consumer price inflation trended lower, falling below 3% in July. The Federal Reserve began cutting short-term interest rates in September, which boosted stock returns, as did the prospect of tax cuts and deregulation under the incoming administration. Nine of the benchmark’s 11 industry sectors posted positive returns. Industrials and financials contributed most to the benchmark’s total return. Other notable contributors included technology, utility, and consumer discretionary companies. Health care and basic materials stocks detracted. |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | How did the Fund perform during the reporting period? For the 12 months ended December 31, 2024, the Fund performed in line with its benchmark, the CRSP US Small Cap Index. U.S. economic growth hovered around 3% on a year-over-year basis for much of the period, and consumer price inflation trended lower, falling below 3% in July. The Federal Reserve began cutting short-term interest rates in September, which boosted stock returns, as did the prospect of tax cuts and deregulation under the incoming administration. But near the end of the period, reduced expectations for further rate cuts weighed on stock returns and bond prices. Ten of the benchmark’s 11 industry sectors produced positive returns.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | How did the Fund perform during the reporting period? For the 12 months ended December 31, 2024, the Fund performed in line with its benchmark, the CRSP US Small Cap Value Index. U.S. economic growth hovered around 3% on a year-over-year basis for much of the period, and consumer price inflation trended lower, falling below 3% in July. The Federal Reserve began cutting short-term interest rates in September, which boosted stock returns, as did the prospect of tax cuts and deregulation under the incoming administration. But near the end of the period, reduced expectations for further rate cuts weighed on stock returns and bond prices. Ten of the benchmark’s 11 industry sectors produced positive returns. Financial and industrial stocks contributed the most to the benchmark’s return. Consumer discretionary and real estate also performed well. Basic materials, the only sector that posted a negative return, was the lone detractor. For the decade ended December 31, 2024, the Fund performed in line with its benchmark, which returned nearly 9%, annualized. |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | How did the Fund perform during the reporting period? For the 12 months ended December 31, 2024, the Fund performed in line with its benchmark, the CRSP US Total Market Index. U.S. economic growth hovered around 3% on a year-over-year basis for much of the period, and consumer price inflation trended lower, falling below 3% in July. The Federal Reserve began cutting short-term interest rates in September, which boosted stock returns, as did the prospect of tax cuts and deregulation under the incoming administration. Ten of the benchmark’s 11 industry sectors recorded positive returns for the 12 months. Technology, the index’s largest sector by weight, posted extremely strong returns and was by far the greatest contributor to results. Consumer discretionary and financials were also among the top contributors. |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | How did the Fund perform during the reporting period? For the 12 months ended December 31, 2024, the Fund performed roughly in line with its benchmark, the CRSP US Mid Cap Growth Index. U.S. economic growth hovered around 3% on a year-over-year basis for much of the period, and consumer price inflation trended lower, falling below 3% in July. The Federal Reserve began cutting short-term interest rates in September, which boosted stock returns, as did the prospect of tax cuts and deregulation under the incoming administration. Seven of the benchmark’s 11 industry sectors posted positive returns. Industrials, information technology, and consumer discretionary contributed most to the benchmark’s total return. Health care, consumer staples, energy, and basic materials stocks detracted. |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | How did the Fund perform during the reporting period? For the 12 months ended December 31, 2024, the Fund performed roughly in line with its benchmark, the CRSP US Mid Cap Growth Index. U.S. economic growth hovered around 3% on a year-over-year basis for much of the period, and consumer price inflation trended lower, falling below 3% in July. The Federal Reserve began cutting short-term interest rates in September, which boosted stock returns, as did the prospect of tax cuts and deregulation under the incoming administration. Seven of the benchmark’s 11 industry sectors posted positive returns. Industrials, information technology, and consumer discretionary contributed most to the benchmark’s total return. Health care, consumer staples, energy, and basic materials stocks detracted. |
