Subject: IHE NEWS BULLETIN: Spellings Releases Plan for Higher Ed
From: newsroom@insidehighered.com
Education Secretary Margaret Spellings plans a many faceted campaign to carry out the recommendations of her Commission on the Future of Higher Education, including providing matching funds to colleges and states that collect and publicly report how well their students learn, building a “privacy protected” database of college students’ academic records, and streamlining the process of applying for federal student aid.
Those are among a small number of specific efforts that Spellings will announce in a speech today in which she will endorse the panel’s work and challenge college leaders, policy makers and the public to help improve an American higher education system that she describes as slipping.
