Bachelor of Science in Internetworking Technology ’03 reg Blanche values leadership. As an enlisted soldier in the U.S. Army he rose G through the ranks from Technician to Supervisor. When he left the service after 11 years he aspired to a management position in information technology, but knew he needed the formal credentials to be competitive in the civilian job market. Mr. Blanche was nervous about returning to school as an adult student after so many years. It was a relief to learn that some of his Army training and real-world experience could be translated into college credit. Strayer University’s admissions officers and academic advisors helped him determine the best course of study to suit his strengths and help him meet his career goals. “The hands-on experience I gained at Strayer University gave me the opportunity for a promotion onto the management track,” Mr. Blanche says. “I am now well- positioned to be a leader at my company and in my field.” 69710_GROFF 4/3/06 4:36 PM Page 1 O UR M ISSION To make high quality post-secondary education achievable for working adults trayer Education, Inc. is a for-profit education students at 39 physical campuses in the eastern United S services corporation.

The introduction from Strayer’s 1912 student catalog, reprinted below, is Today, Strayer University educates more than 27,000 testimony to the continuity of our commitment. INTRODUCTION FROM THE STRAYER 1912 STUDENT CATALOG This catalog was written with a view of setting before the men and women of this community some of the advantages of a business education, and of acquainting them with the superior facilities of this school for giving high-grade business training. The courses have been designed and presented to meet the needs of the business office of today. The teachers are men and women who are specialists in their respective subjects. The school rooms have been chosen and equipped with special reference to light, comfort and sanitation, so as to make it an ideal place for study. We ask that the public, in determining which school it shall attend, to consider the facts in connection with this school, as are outlined in this catalog and supplementary literature. It is twenty years old. It has grown steadily since the beginning. It attributes its growth to correct ideals, careful management and successful, enthusiastic, and rapidly increasing alumni. While it is essential to its success that a school should give thorough instruction in the subjects that comprise its courses, yet the school that Strayer’s campus does only this, falls short of its full mission. The development of those traits of circa 1912 character which make for reliability in business and good citizenship are the peculiar province of the school as well as the home. This school, then, has nothing in common, can have nothing in common, with those so-called business schools offering cheap and superficial courses. Such courses, while inexpensive, and possibly of short duration, cannot result in anything but disappointment in the end. This school, then, stands for high ideals, it courts investigation, welcomes comparison, and stands by its promises. It is a school to which you may attend with the knowledge that you will be in pleasant surroundings, will be accorded fair treatment, and will be given thorough and painstaking instruction. Finally, in presenting this catalog, we want to thank a discerning public for its support, and assure it that we shall endeavor to continue to merit the bountiful confidence it has heretofore placed in us. 1 69710_GROFF 4/3/06 4:36 PM Page 2 S ELECTED F INANCIAL D ATA Student Enrollment Revenues Operating Income Fall Quarter 26 250 75 23 200 60 20 150 45 17 100 30 14 50 15 $52,900,000 $65,500,000 $74,900,000 $41,200,000 $33,500,000 $183,200,000 $220,500,000 $147,000,000 $116,700,000 $92,900,000 16,532 23,539 27,305 14,009 20,138 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 Net Income Earnings Per Share (diluted) 50 3.00 40 2.50 30 2.00 20 1.50 10 1.00 $1.78 $1.55 $2.27 $2.74 $3.26 $41,200,000 $48,100,000 $33,700,000 $22,800,000 $25,800,000 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 W ILLIAM R EHA,M.D. Surgeon, Potomac Hospital Master of Business Administration ’98 r.William Reha believes success is not enough. That’s why he returned to school Dfor a master’s degree even after establishing a thriving surgical practice. The former Hospital Chief of Staff had assumed new administrative and management responsibilities, and wanted the finance and business skills to back them up. Examining patients and spending long hours in the operating room left Dr. Reha with little free time for traditional graduate courses. Strayer University’s flexible degree program allowed him to keep up with his patients and his studies—and still have time for his two children. “Strayer University’s graduate programs were designed for working professionals like me,” Dr. Reha says. “I was able to balance work and family obligations while gaining the business education I needed to operate a successful private clinical practice.” 2 69710_GROFF 4/3/06 4:36 PM Page 3 L ETTER TO S HAREHOLDERS R OBERT S.

  • CRA Working Paper 2014-02: a Profile of Higher Educational
    A Profile of Higher Education Institutions 02 in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area - By Joanna Biernacka-Lievestro Graduate Research Assistant George Mason University Center for Regional Analysis Working Paper No. 2014 May 2014 A Profile of Higher Education Institutions in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area Working Paper 2014-02 by Joanna Biernacka-Lievestro Graduate Research Assistant Introduction The Washington, D.C. metropolitan area is one of the leading hubs for higher education in the United States. A 2012 study by the Martin Property Institute,1 which analyzed the Census Bureau’s 2010 American Community Survey data, places metropolitan Washington, D.C. as the fourth largest college town in the United States, following only New York City, Los Angeles and Chicago. The Washington, D.C. region surpassed other metropolitan areas with high concentrations of college students, such as Philadelphia, Boston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Miami, San Francisco and Atlanta. This research shows that there are at least 93 institutions of higher education operating in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. This report presents data on these institutions’ enrollment and employment by type and location. Due to reporting limitations, data were only available for 78 of these institutions. As of the Fall 2012 semester, the 78 analyzed universities and colleges enrolled approximately 338,000 graduate and undergraduate students and employed about 70,600 faculty and staff. It must be emphasized that the numbers of students and employees are underestimated due to missing data for the 15 schools and because it is expected that the list of public and private universities and colleges compiled for this research is not exhaustive.2 1 Florida Richard.

  • 2018 ANNUAL REPORT Strategic Education, Inc
    2018 ANNUAL REPORT Strategic Education, Inc. Letter to Shareholders 2019 Dear Fellow Shareholders, Strategic Education, Inc. (or SEI) was formed by the merger of Strayer Education, Inc. and Capella Education Company, on August 1, 2018. In this letter, I will review our strong academic, operational, and financial results in 2019 (our first full year of operation), as well as discuss our plans for 2020. In addition, I have included as an appendix to this letter both an excerpt from Strayer University’s 1912 student catalog, as well as an excerpt from my first letter to shareholders, written in 2001. These two excerpts have been reprinted in each of our annual reports since 2001, and shareholders who are new to SEI may wish to read them prior to reading this letter, as I believe they provide helpful background on both our culture and operating model. 2019 Results I will describe SEI’s 2019 performance in this letter assuming our founding merger had taken place on January 1, 2018 (vs. August 1), so shareholders will see a full year over year comparison of our constituent businesses. While less impressive than the actual results presented in the 10K accompanying this annual report, I believe this “pro-forma” comparison provides a clearer picture of what is actually going on in our enterprise, and is frankly impressive enough. SEI’s two main operating assets are Strayer University (founded in 1892) and Capella University (founded in 1993). Both Universities hold regional accreditation, the most prestigious academic accreditation a university in the United States may hold. Both Universities provide undergraduate and graduate degrees to working adult students.

  • Building a Strong, Independent DC Community College
    Building a Strong, Independent DC Community College By JBL Associates Commissioned by Greater Washington Research at Brookings and DC Appleseed November 2009 Letter to the Readers: In 2008, our organizations each published papers calling for the District to increase its community college capacity. At that time, Washington, DC was the only major American city without a full-service community college. We concluded that DC needed a community college to prepare residents for good jobs and further college education, build its middle class, and grow its tax base. Accordingly, we held a working session in June of that year for higher education leaders, government officials, employers, and other community stakeholders to discuss practical ways for the city to enhance and grow its community college capabilities. At that meeting, DC Council Chairman Vincent C. Gray called for a study to assess the feasibility of the options for starting a community college, as outlined in the Brookings Institution report, Envisioning Opportunity: Three Options for a Community College in Washington, D.C. Following strong endorsement of this suggestion by other government and community leaders, DC Appleseed and Greater Washington Research at Brookings undertook a competitive bidding process and chose JBL Associates to conduct the study. Since then, the University of the District of Columbia has moved forward vigorously to establish a community college—the Community College of the District of Columbia (CCDC), which opened its doors in fall 2009. CCDC is currently in a transition year as its new CEO, Dr. Jonathan Gueverra, develops a vision and strategic plan for the college. The changes at UDC/CCDC are taking place so quickly that we have no doubt that some of the details contained in this report will be out of date by the time it is released.

    Driven to Succeed Public Charter High School 1425 K. Street Suite 350 Washington, DC 20005 Email: [email protected] 1 D.C. Public Charter School Board 3333 14th Street NW Suite 210 Washington, DC 20010 Dear Chairman Brian W. Jones, Director Josephine Baker and the D.C. Public Charter School Board and Staff: It is through our combined dedication and commitment to the youth of the District of Columbia that the Driven to Succeed Public Charter High School planning team is submitting this proposal for the creation of The Driven to Succeed Public Charter High School. The enclosed instructional portfolio features the structures and ideologies we wish to establish in the college-preparatory school serving grades 9-12 with a curriculum focused on leadership, law, policy, servitude, grassroots organizing, and environmental stewardship. Many of today’s youth grow up feeling powerless and disconnected from our country, our culture and our world. The Driven to Succeed Public Charter High School is the result of this teams' experiences engaging scholars in the political process. DSPCHS will make an 8 year commitment to nurture its scholars in developing personal political perspectives which will allow them to connect to government and their civic responsibilities. Our 8 year commitment includes the 4 years of matriculation in high school, and four years of the undergraduate experience. We will foster such development through a comprehensive reflection on both American and global history with the intent of creating an awareness and understanding of how decisions and actions on a local level impact their lives. DSPCHS scholars will be prepared to utilize their historical and political knowledge to deepen their participation in our democracy and our world.
