Last Updated June 12, 2018 Organizations Voicing Concern or Opposing H.R. 4508 More than 1,000 organizations spanning higher education, civil rights, veteran services, consumer protection, and public sector service communities have written Congress to demand significant revisions to H.R. 4508, the GOP bill to reauthorize the Higher Education Act and cut billions from financial aid. The bipartisan Public Service Loan Forgiveness Caucus has expressed concerns, and the Congressional Tri-Caucus is opposed to the bill. Not surprisingly, the Career Education Colleges and Universities (CECU) trade group, an association representing for-profit colleges, has endorsed H.R. 4508. On the same day of introduction, CECU praised the bill for “fairness and balance in higher education policy.” Access and Success, St. Catherine University American Association of Colleges of Nursing AccessLex Institute American Association of Colleges of ACCSES Osteopathic Medicine ACPA - College Student Educators International American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy Adrian College American Association of Colleges of Podiatric Advance CTE Medicine Advocates for Children of New York American Association of Collegiate Registrars Advocates for Youth and Admissions Officers African Studies Association American Association of Community Colleges Aims Community College American Association of Equine Practitioners Air Force Sergeants Association American Association of Feline Practitioners Air Force Women Officers Associated American Association of Industry Veterinarians Alabama Veterinary Medical Association American Association of Mycobacterial Alaska State Veterinary Medical Association Diseases Alberto R.

    Castleton University and Southwestern Vermont Health Care

    CASTLETON UNIVERSITY AND SOUTHWESTERN VERMONT HEALTH CARE ANNOUNCE NURSING PARTNERSHIP CASTLETON – Southwestern Vermont Health Care (SVHC) has designated Castleton University as its preferred partner for nursing education. With the impending closure of Southern Vermont College, SVHC anticipates there will be a shortage of registered nurses with a bachelor of science degree to fill vacant positions in the immediate future and beyond, which are necessary to sustain critically important services and meet the needs of the communities it serves. To address the anticipated shortage at SVHC, Castleton University has submitted a substantive change request to the New England Commission of Higher Education to establish an additional location in Bennington to deliver its Bachelor of Science in Nursing program beginning in the fall of 2019. Castleton plans to share space with Vermont Technical College. Southwestern Vermont Health Care has made a commitment to offer employment to Castleton students who satisfactorily complete the BSN program, obtain licensure, and meet pre-employment requirements. Additionally, SVHC will pay back (in full) tuition debt to those accepted employees that work six consecutive years within the health system. Castleton University President Dr. Karen M. Scolforo hopes that by delivering an affordable nursing program in Bennington, students from southern Vermont and nearby New York and Massachusetts will be encouraged to pursue a nursing career at SVHC. “Community hospitals across the country are facing a critical shortage of nurses and unfortunately SVHC is no different. This partnership will make a Castleton education accessible to more students while also helping to accommodate the anticipated staffing needs of SVHC,” Scolforo said.
