Prepared By: The Professional Staff of the Committee on Appropriations BILL: SB 1526 INTRODUCER: Senator Gibson SUBJECT: Historically Black Colleges and Universities Matching Endowment Scholarship Program DATE: February 21, 2018 REVISED: ANALYST STAFF DIRECTOR REFERENCE ACTION 1. Bouck Graf ED Favorable 2. Smith Elwell AHE Recommend: Fav/CS 3. Sikes Hansen AP Pre-meeting I. Summary: SB 1526 bill creates the Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) Matching Endowment Scholarship Program (program). The program will be administered by the Florida Department of Education (DOE) and will provide funds to participating Florida-based HBCUs for scholarships to enrolled students. Four HBCUs are located in Florida: Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University, Bethune-Cookman University, Edward Waters College, and Florida Memorial University. The bill requires the Legislature to appropriate $2 million for the program, to be transferred to the Historically Black Colleges and Universities Matching Endowment Scholarship Trust Fund (trust fund). By June 30, 2019, each HBCU that wishes to participate in the program must contribute $500,000 in matching funds to the trust fund. The bill takes effect July 1, 2018. II. Present Situation: The Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, defines an HBCU as: “… historically black college or university that was established prior to 1964, whose principal mission was, and is, the education of black Americans, and that is accredited by a nationally recognized accrediting agency or association determined by the Secretary [of Education] to be a reliable authority as to the quality of training offered or is, according to such an agency or association, making reasonable progress toward accreditation.”1 1 U.S.

I'm here in Baltimore, Maryland, and its Tuesday, April 7th, 2020. I'm speaking by phone with Dr. James E Cross who is currently in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Good morning and thank you for being with me today. JC: Good morning, I’ve been looking forward toward the interview. AS: The first question we'll be starting with is, if you could tell me a little bit about where you were born and what your family life was like growing up. JC: I was born on May the 29th, 1937 on a 20 acre farm just outside of the city limits of Hampton, Virginia. Actually, my birth certificate gives the place of birth as Elizabeth City County, Virginia. The area was eventually annexed in as part of the city. Today, it would be said that I came from a single-family home, but that would be misleading. That is because in addition to my mother and grandparents, I grew up in a home with ten uncles and aunts. Although we didn't have a lot of money, I had a very, very rich childhood. On the farm, we raised strawberries, tomatoes, potatoes, lettuce, cantaloupes, corn, and other types of vegetables. [0:05:00] In addition, we had pigs, a yard full of chickens and two cows.

  • Jose Fernandez, Phd Adjunct Professor, Department of Physics
    Seminar Talk Jose Fernandez, PhD Adjunct Professor, Department of Physics, Christopher Newport University and Adjunct Professor, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Old Dominion University Friday, April 22, 2016 3:00 p.m. KH 224 Title: SABER NO+(v) Volume Emission Rates and its application to the IRI storm model development Abstract: Observations of thermospheric infrared 4.3 um limb emission from the TIMED/SABER instrument have fostered the development of new data products, models, and analysis tools for the study of upper atmospheric and ionospheric response to solar-geomagnetic disturbances. Enhancements in nighttime 4.3 um emission during storm periods are due to vibrational excitation of NO+ (i.e., NO+(v)), caused by auroral dosing and subsequent ion-neutral chemical reactions followed by radiative emission at 4.3 um. The fundamental observation-based quantity used to study the E- region from SABER 4.3 um emission measurements is the NO+(v) volume emission rate (VER). In this talk, we show the versatility of the NO+(v) VER, useful for characterizing the morphology of the E-region electron density as a response to magnetic disturbances. The end-goal of this study is to develop an empirical E-region storm-time correction to the International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) model. The IRI model is a widely used empirical model for the specification of ionospheric parameters and is recommended for the international use by the Committee on Space Research (COSPAR) and the International Union of Radio Science (URSI). However, the specification of the ionospheric response to solar-geomagnetic disturbances in IRI remains largely incomplete, and there is currently no storm-time correction to IRI parameters in the E- region.

  • Measuring and Promoting Social Mobility in the Commonwealth of Virginia
    Measuring and Promoting Social Mobility in the Commonwealth of Virginia With the increased demand for college completion, higher education leaders in Virginia must develop systems to facilitate success for every college student, particularly historically disadvantaged students. Social mobility is the movement of individuals or groups from one socioeconomic status to another. By analyzing social mobility data, SCHEV, in partnership with Virginia higher education institutions, can develop strategies that improve access and close equity gaps for underrepresented students. Institutions that excel at providing opportunities and mobility often are not the ones that are highly ranked externally (e.g. by U.S. News & World Report). The Commonwealth’s current funding formula does not take into account the additional resources and time needed to provide opportunities and mobility to Virginians in greatest need. The state has the opportunity to better support institutions that excel at providing opportunities and mobility. Expanding college access for low-income and first-generation students is a tangible way to promote social mobility. Higher education must be accessible to students across the economic spectrum. We need to develop intentional strategies to retain economically disadvantaged students, improve college completion, and graduate these students into productive jobs. To advance economic mobility for low-income, underrepresented students, research shows that student support, academic resources, and financial assistance must work together. Providing a combination of financial assistance and support programs for low-income students is of paramount importance (Executive Office of the President, 2014; Kruger, 2018). This combination gives students the most traction to overcome disadvantages and propel them to degree attainment. When measuring social mobility in Virginia, it is important to define Underrepresented Minority (URM) which includes Black, Latinx, and Native American learners.

    PRIDE 2020 The Strategic Plan for Delaware State University PRIDE 2020: Personal Responsibility in Delivering Excellence Statement from the President It is with tremendous pride and pleasure that I present to you the Strategic Plan for Delaware State University – Personal Responsibility in Delivering Excellence – or PRIDE 2020. Delaware State University is a public, comprehensive 1890 land-grant university established by the Delaware General Assembly on May 15, 1891. In these 123 years, DSU has gone from being a State College offering five courses of study in agriculture, chemistry, the classics, engineering and science to a University offering its 4,505 students 52 baccalaureate, 25 master’s and five doctoral degree programs through 21 academic departments. The University has an Honors Program and a number of strategic international partnerships. In addition to its 356-acre main campus with 50 buildings, DSU also has two farm properties, locations in Wilmington and Georgetown, and a fleet of planes for the Aviation Program with a base of operations at the Delaware Air Park in Cheswold. It has been quite a journey from our humble beginnings. DSU has made significant strides along the way to the year 2014. But that was then, and this is now. PRIDE 2020 outlines for you the steps we will collectively take as we begin our journey toward the next decade – a journey that insures we are a University that prepares tomorrow’s leaders, invests in the community’s well-being and meets global challenges. I charged the University Strategic Planning Council with delivering a plan that was comprehensive, challenging and concise.

  • Dear Ms. Gaina: As the Executive Vice President of Monroe College, I
    Ms. Jean-Didier Gaina August 1, 2016 Offce of Postsecondary Education U.S. Department of Education 400 Maryland Avenue SW, Room 6W232B Washington, DC 20202 RE: DOCKET NUMBER ED-2015-OPE-0103 Dear Ms. Gaina: As the Executive Vice President of Monroe College, I write regarding the proposed Defense to Repayment Rule (“Rule”) as published in the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on June 13, 2016. At Monroe College, we have consistently championed an approach to higher education that focuses on: • Student outcomes across all institution types • Constructive policies that encourage and permit responsive actions from institutions that positively impact students • Transparency in data and process Our comments on the Rule focus on two areas: • A concern that the proposed Repayment Rate Warning does not adequately protect or inform students and refects a fawed approach that jeopardizes the entire Rule • Risks stemming from an overly broad Borrower Defense Framework will lead to unintended consequences that harm community colleges, HBCUs, and other institutions that provide access to underrepresented students For 83 years, Monroe College has consistently produced some of the best outcomes in the country for urban and low-income minority students. We have one of the highest graduation rates and one of the lowest default rates for the populations we serve. We are proud of the recognition we have earned as a model for increasing student access and the resources we allocate to student support services, including fnancial literacy, student loan counseling, remediation and career services. Given that Monroe is located in the poorest congressional zip code in the country, we are a laboratory for many of the great higher education policy debates, particularly those that relate to access for minorities and low-income students, graduation rates, student debt, college readiness, or employment outcomes.
