  • February 14, 2019 Published on CU Connections (
    CU Connections Issue: February 14, 2019 Published on CU Connections (https://connections.cu.edu) Regents approve civics literacy initiative[1] The CU Board of Regents on Wednesday approved a slate of motions aimed at expanding civics education across the CU system. The work was initiated in 2017 by Regent John Carson, R-Highlands Ranch, and brought to the board by its University Affairs Committee. During its Wednesday meeting at CU South Denver in Lone Tree, the board voted on four motions, each of which was passed, though none unanimously. The resolutions reflected input from the Faculty Council, which requested that the regents not create additional barriers to student admission or graduation, that the wishes of the individual campuses be respected and that the curriculum be determined by faculty. “I feel like we’ve reached a mutual agreement that this is an area we should all focus on,” said Carson, whose presentation[2] included background calling for improved civics literacy among Americans. “Nothing today is coming in the form of a mandate.” The motions the regents approved call for the following: That faculty be encouraged to launch a civics-focused certificate, with a fall 2019 announcement followed by courses beginning in 2020. (Passed 8-1, with Regent Linda Shoemaker, D-Boulder, opposing.) That the Regents Online Resolution already in place be amended to recommend that one of the courses focused on concurrent enrollment be a civics course, available in 2020 for CU and high school students in Colorado. (Passed 6-3, with Regents Shoemaker, Irene Griego, D-Lakewood, and Lesley Smith, D-Boulder, opposing.) That administration and faculty work to conduct a survey of a sampling of the incoming class of 2019 freshmen to determine a base level of civics knowledge among Colorado high school graduates.

Mr. Waxman's opening statement is enclosed. Attached is testimony given by Congressman Steve Bartlett of Texas, Senator Chafee, and the Congressional Budget Office. Also enclosed is a side-by-side comparison of the two bills and current Medicaid law developed by the Congressional Research Service of the Library of Congress.. Senator Bentsen has agreed to mark up Senator Chafee's bill early in the 101st Congress. Should Senator Bentsen become the Vice-President, Senator Matsunaga of Hawaii would become Senate Finance Committee Chairman and would, in all likelihood, be agreeable to moving forward. Congressman Waxman, while not going as far as to discuss mark-up on either his or Florio's bill, did agree, in both his opening and closing statements, to work with Congressman Florio on a compromise early in the next Congress. A list of current co-sponsors of the Chafee/Florio bills is attached. We need to keep all those returning Senators and Congressman on-board when this process begins anew in January. For those in your Congressional delegations who are not current co-sponsors, plan some visits to programs while they are home campaigning this fall and over the holidays.
