A Topeka Capital-Journal article by Rafael Garcia reported recommendations from the rpk Group’s review of the Board of Regents analysis and approval of programs at the six state universities. The Regents currently review programs on an institutional basis without looking at the System as a whole.

While stating that their review of the System’s collective academic portfolio should not be interpreted as a recommendation to cut specific programs, the rpk Group categorized the System’s 688 total programs into three groups. Only 110 programs or 16 percent demonstrated above average enrollment, program growth, and completions. There were 401 programs or 58 percent that were grouped into a category that should be “adjusted” to achieve better enrollment and graduation rates. The final category consisted of 177 programs (26 percent) that should be “reviewed and monitored” with clear expectations for enrollments and completions.

Peripheral Angioplasty artery disease, or PAD, is a condition characterized by decreased blood flow to parts of your body, such as your arms and legs.

This summer, educators need to get some rest so that we can be our best. However, our professional accreditation requirements are still on track and need to be renewed, as we have to learn and up our abilities for the fall. As I look ahead to this summer and listen to educators, here are 21 hot topics that I think we should consider including in our summer PD.

Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Sunday accused the BJP government in Karnataka of being ‘hand-in-glove’ with private educational institutions which were allegedly overcharging students. In a series of tweets, the Congress leader slammed Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa and Primary and Secondary Education Minister S Suresh Kumar for allegedly not having control over private education institutions. He alleged that schools were forcing parents to pay full school fees and threatening to stop online classes if they did not comply with it and said the government was silent on the issue. “Schools are charging even extra curricular fees on top of teaching fees. This is an additional burden on parents. The @BJP4Karnataka is hand in gloves with the institutions,” Siddaramaiah, who is Leader of Opposition in the state Assembly tweeted.
