Pentagon To Colleges–Give Us The Student Names!
2008-04-01 09:08:00 The Defense Department has announced a new get tough policy with colleges that refuse to turn over the names of students since that information is of vital importance to milltary recruiters. The Pentagon wants the exact same access tos tudent directories that is provided all other prospective employers. Students can opt out of having this information given to military recruiters only if they at the same time opt out of the data being provided any prospective employer. The new policy refuses to accept a school’s claim that recruiters are banned from the college grounds because school authorities have determined no students wish to enter the armed forces. Federal funding can be cut off to colleges that refuse access to millitary recruiters or deny ROTC programs on campus. The Supreme Court last year upheld the right of government to deny funding if a college denies recruiters access to the school. The reality of modern times is few college students are interested in military ca...
Financial Help from Colleges
2008-03-31 10:08:00 “Monetary troubles distract learners from their lessons. A large amount of freshmen come to university grounds with little sensible monetary information, such as how to balance a checkbook or make a budget,” University of Louisville (U of L) Financial Aid Director Pat Arauz said: “Students require this knowledge to be winning in school. They require making the monetary help they get last for the entire semester and confirm they’re not taking on too much money owing, particularly credit card debt.” Consistent with Arauz, more than a few students have benefited from the course. “Subsequent to attending a seminar, a student came to the monetary help agency to ask about student loans,” Arauz said. “The student said she had been using credit cards to disburse for college needs and not paying the balance monthly. She said the discussion groups made her understand it was better to remove student loans.” Arauz says 700 learners went to a Financial Fiesta at U of L last fal...

Colleges keep watch over troubled students
2008-03-29 04:06:00 LEXINGTON, Ky. - On the agenda: A student who got into a shouting match with a faculty member. Another who harassed a female classmate. Someone found sleeping in a car. And a student who posted a threat against a professor on Facebook.In a practice adopted at one college after another since the massacre at Virginia Tech, a University of Kentucky committee of deans, administrators, campus police and mental health officials has begun meeting regularly to discuss a watch list of troubled students and decide whether they need professional help or should be sent packing.These "threat assessment groups" are aimed at heading off the kind of bloodshed seen at Virginia Tech a year ago and at Northern Illinois University last month.(You can catch the full story here...)Holy FUCK!?! Is it just me, or is there something extremely wrong with this approach to preventing campus disasters at the hands of the very few?

Are Online Colleges A Waste Of Time?
2008-02-27 17:15:00 If you're an older adult who's always wanted to continue your education and you just haven't had time to, or if you want to go back to school for that advanced degree but a full-time job keeps you from signing up for classes, you're in luck. Today, online institutions afford nontraditional students, parents, those with full-time jobs, and others not able to go back to college full time in a traditional university setting the chance to continue their educations on their own schedules. It used to be that if you wanted to go back to class, you had to go to college part-time, at night, or otherwise arrange your schedule inconveniently, so that you could attend classes on campus. Alternatively, of course, you could quit your job if you had the means to do so and go back to class full time. However, today, you can keep your full-time job and your regular schedule intact and still get that associates degree you want. Got kids you need to be home for? No problem.
