The report, now in its third year, includes a broad spectrum of performance measures and goals, established by the Board in collaboration with the 24 state and community colleges, to address strategic objectives for public higher education. The University of Massachusetts prepares a separate accountability report for its five campuses located in Amherst, Boston, Dartmouth, Lowell and Worcester. Because of their status as specialty institutions, Massachusetts College of Art and Massachusetts Maritime Academy also prepare separate reports. Public Higher Education in Massachusetts Overall, we are seeing growing evidence of the system’s relevance to Massachusetts residents. In this state, where there are many educational options, more Massachusetts high school graduates are choosing public higher education. The percent of Massachusetts high school graduates who opted to stay here has increased from 63% in fall 1996 to 68% in fall 2004, an increase of 5,464 Massachusetts students. Last year, 280,000 Massachusetts residents attended our public colleges or University campuses, comprising 92% of undergraduate student enrollment and 72% of graduate student enrollment in the public system.

The subject of the conference was choice in public education. First, excerpts from opening remarks and a note on the conference are presented. Then, major recommendations are outlined, including: (I) Parents must be involved in deciding which different kinds of educational options should be offered in their district and whichare best for each of their children. (2) Teachers and principals must be able to choose the kind of schooling they wish to practice. (3) A permanent system-wide Parent and Citizen Planning Council should be established, and its members should conduct parent/professional surveys, operate a city-wide Parent Information Center, and perform other similar functions. (4) School-based management is preferred, and every school should have a School Parent Council elected by the parents whose children attend that school.

  • Imagination, Mythology, Artistry and Play in Laura Ingalls Wilder’S Little House
    PLAYING PIONEER: IMAGINATION, MYTHOLOGY, ARTISTRY AND PLAY IN LAURA INGALLS WILDER’S LITTLE HOUSE By ANNA LOCKHART A thesis submitted to the Graduate School-Camden Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Program in English Written under the direction of Holly Blackford And approved by _____________________________ Dr. Holly Blackford _____________________________ Dr. Carol Singley Camden, New Jersey January 2017 THESIS ABSTRACT “Playing Pioneer: Imagination, Mythology, Artistry and Play in Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House” By ANNA LOCKHART Thesis Director: Holly Blackford Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House series is a fictionalized account of Wilder’s childhood growing up in a family settling the American frontier in the late nineteenth- century. As much as the series is about childhood and the idyllic space of the blank, uncultivated frontier, it is about a girl growing into a woman, replacing childhood play and dreams with an occupation, sense of meaning, and location as an adult, woman, citizen, and artist. In this essay, I explore the depictions of play in the series as their various iterations show Laura’s departure from childhood and mirror the cultivation and development of the frontier itself. In my reading, I locate four distinct elements of play to answer these questions: Laura’s interactions and negotiations with various doll figures; her use of play as a tool to explore and bend boundaries and gender prescriptions; play as an industrious act intermingled with work; and her play with words, which allows her to transition out of childhood into a meaningful role as artist, playing an important role in the mythologizing and narration of the American frontier story.
