Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 6-a:

New Programs.

SUBJECT: University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. Approval of request to offer the Doctor of Philosophy in Nursing.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center’s (OUHSC) request to offer the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Nursing with the stipulation that continuation of the program will depend upon meeting the criteria established by the institution and approved by the State Regents, as described below.

• Doctor of Philosophy in Nursing. Continuation beyond Fall 2012 will depend upon: Majors enrolled: a minimum of 12 students in Fall 2011; and Graduates: a minimum of 4 students in 2010-11.

BACKGROUND:

Academic Plan

The University of Oklahoma’s (OU) Academic Plan lists the following institutional priorities:

• OU seeks to become a leading public research university in the country, recognized for the quality of bachelor’s degree recipients and ability to enhance the public good through economic development of research and by providing through faculty and alumni, an impact on public policy within strategic areas of research excellence. With the strong economic climate within the country and within the state, OU can move forward aggressively on all components of its strategic plan during the coming year.

• OU’s six-year graduation rate is 56.2 percent based on the entering cohort of Fall 1999 freshmen and it is estimated that 60 percent will be reached within the next five years based on the academic preparedness of subsequent freshman cohorts and their first and second year retention rates. Six-year graduation rates of students, the quality of their writing (as assessed by general education assessment), and their satisfaction with their academic majors as assessed in capstone courses will be measured by general student satisfaction assessment and by assessment of the academic majors. The number of graduating students who have had internationally oriented courses, direct experience with international students at OU and study abroad experiences will be assessed.

• OU is reviewing and monitoring the academic interest areas of incoming students carefully. With the surge of student interest in health-related careers, we need to continue to add and renovate instructional laboratories in the basic science areas and in social science disciplines (Psychology,

1 Communications, Health and Exercise Sciences) so as not to slow their process in obtaining those courses that make them admissible to the OUHSC programs of their choice.

• OU seeks to streamline centralized services through updated technology and to continue embedding the best practices of technology within curriculum across all academic disciplines.

• The Office of Informational Technology continues to increase wireless access to the internet throughout the campus and new buildings on campus will capitalize wireless access where appropriate. The Office of Information Technology works to ensure a very robust, redundant system of high bandwidth internet access for the growing research campus.

• Finally, all colleges are working with their instructional faculty to embed best practices technology into their curriculum.

APRA Implementation.

Since 1991-92, OUHSC has deleted 15 degree and/or certificate programs while adding 15 degree and/or certificate programs.

Program Review.

OUHSC offers 61 degree programs (8 baccalaureate, 25 masters, 15 doctoral, 9 first professional, and 4 certificates), all of which were reviewed in the past five years with the exception of those programs with specialty accreditation. Programs with specialty accreditation are aligned with OUHSC’s program review schedule as appropriate. Thus, if a professional program received a ten-year accreditation, it would not be reviewed for ten years, which is an approved exception to State Regents’ policy.

Program Development Process.

OUHSC faculty developed the proposal, which was reviewed and approved by institutional officials and OU’s governing board. Upon submission, State Regents' staff completes a thorough review and confers with the institution for clarifications and revisions prior to presentation to the State Regents for consideration.

POLICY ISSUES:

This action is consistent with the State Regents’ Academic Program Approval policy.

Doctor of Philosophy in Nursing

Program purpose. The purpose of this program is to offer advanced graduate training in nursing. Especially crucial is the need for research-trained nurse scientists and educators who can prepare students for leadership roles while engaging them in scholarly pursuits, secure funding for nursing research programs and contribute to the body of nursing knowledge.

Program rationale/background. Nursing is one of the largest and fastest growing areas of science. A doctoral program in nursing is urgently needed in Oklahoma to prepare leaders for all levels of nursing education in the state at a time when the demand for nurses continues to escalate at an alarming rate. The proposed degree program will increase the supply of professional nurses in Oklahoma by educating nurses for faculty positions; prepare leaders for all levels of nursing education in Oklahoma as well as leadership roles in hospitals and other service settings; provide advanced training in nursing science, research and grantsmanship to prepare nursing graduates to hold tenured senior positions in universities

2 and attain funding for research and program grants; and facilitate recruitment of federally funded doctorally-prepared faculty to Oklahoma nursing programs. The proposed degree program calls for collaboration with two other well established colleges (University of Colorado and University of Minnesota) with existing Ph.D. programs in nursing. The collaborative program will offer enrichment opportunities for students and junior faculty at all institutions and the possibility, by sharing resources, to increase the number of doctorally prepared graduates at each school. Grants, contracts, awards, publications and growth in student demand have culminated in a strong proposal for this program.

Employment opportunities. OUHSC states that there is a strong demand, both nationally and in the state of Oklahoma, for nurses with advanced professional training. For over two decades, employers of nurses in hospitals, health service agencies, and academic settings across Oklahoma have petitioned the College of Nursing to develop a doctoral program in nursing. In a survey of Oklahoma nurses, 224 nurses expressed interest in a doctoral program and 110 indicated a desire to start their program immediately. OUHSC indicates Oklahoma nurse employers have demonstrated their perception of the need for doctorally prepared nurses by pledging nearly $100,000 to support doctoral students and affirming their willingness to pay higher salaries to graduates of the program (based on OUHSC’s table of Pledges of Financial Support for Oklahoma doctoral students in its proposal). OUHSC is confident there will be sufficient employment opportunities for program graduates.

Student demand. The proposed program is expected to enroll 12 majors in Fall 2011 and graduate 4 students in 2010-11.

External Review. Doctoral programs represent a long-term commitment for an institution. Faculty, support staff, equipment, facilities and resources are required for research and training doctoral students. This translates to considerable investments in time and funds, therefore institutions infrequently develop new doctoral programs.

For these reasons, two external reviewers, Dr. Kristen Swanson and Dr. Marion Broome, conducted a paper review (i.e., no site visit) of the proposed program. Dr. Swanson is a Robert Wood Johnson Executive Nurse Fellow in the American Academy of Nursing and Chair of the Department of Family and Child Nursing at the University of Washington. Dr. Broome is a Distinguished Professor and University Dean at the Indiana University School of Nursing. Both reviewers have extensive experience in the academic area of nursing as well as knowledge of the quality standards required for successful doctoral programs in nursing.

The external evaluators’ charge was to assess the viability and quality of the proposed degree program with specific attention to issues of duplication of programs, student demand, productivity standards and funding implications. The evaluators used the State Regents’ Academic Program Approval policy and background information on the State Regents’ Academic Planning and Resource Allocation initiative to frame the review.

The team’s overall evaluation included the following findings: • The OUHSC program is central to the mission of the university, which seeks to provide the best possible educational experience for students through excellence in teaching, research and creative activity, and services to the state and society. • The OUHSC program has tremendous community support as evidenced by numerous letters of support, the financial commitments, and the potential collaborations related to teaching and clinical research. • There is an unquestionable need and shortage of nurses, which will be strengthened by a new Ph.D. program.

3

• There is no duplication within the state system and there is a useful synergy with the collaborative sharing of courses and faculty from the University of Colorado and the University of Minnesota. • OUHSC is to be commended for assembling a core group of faculty who are able to provide an excellent grounding in nursing.

The team declared strong support to establish the program at OUHSC. The reviewers agree that developing a doctoral program in Nursing will enhance and is central to the mission of the University of Oklahoma to provide the best possible educational experience for students through excellence in teaching, research creative activity and services to the state and society. There is a core group of faculty who has the knowledge, experience and skills to initiate the program and build it over time.

While recommending State Regents’ approval, the evaluators offered some suggestions for improvement of the proposed program: 1) the requirements for admission and retention of students would be reviewed in light of how congruent they are with the overall university requirements, 2) further consideration should be given to engaging faculty from other health science disciplines on advisory committees to provide interdisciplinary opportunities and perspectives, 3) greater attention should also be given to providing students with course and experiential exposure to the full continuum of the faculty role rather than just a single focus on nursing research skills and 4) support for faculty research and development will need to be further developed and sustained over time. OU responded satisfactorily to these recommendations.

The curriculum for the program meets State Regents’ and national curricular standards for nursing programs as do the proposed admission, retention, and graduation standards. The number of faculty, their level of activity and scholarly expertise are consistent with successful doctoral programs. To summarize, the evaluators indicated the proposed program was of high quality and they strongly supported its implementation.

Duplication/Impact on existing programs. There are no Doctor of Philosophy in Nursing programs in the state of Oklahoma with the closest program offered in Texas. Therefore, approval of this program will not constitute unnecessary duplication.

Curriculum. The proposed degree program consists of a minimum of 90 credit hours, including 58-72 hours of graduate lecture hours and 12-21 hours in dissertation research hours. Attachment A details the proposed curriculum. Twelve new courses will be added to the proposed program and are asterisked.

Faculty and staff. Existing faculty from the departments of Nursing at OUHSC will teach the proposed program. The proposed program will also share faculty resources with the University of Colorado and the University of Minnesota.

Support services. The library, facilities, and equipment are adequate.

Financing. Since OUHSC currently offers graduate courses in nursing, the proposed program will use existing resources. OUHSC reports that a $150,000 gift will support scholarships. An additional $100,000 is anticipated, which will also be made available for scholarships. OUHSC also reports that a Health Resources and Services Association Advanced Education Grant application has been submitted for additional funding. No additional funds are requested from the State Regents.

5 6 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 6-b:

New Programs.

SUBJECT: Oklahoma State University. Approval of request to offer the Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve Oklahoma State University’s (OSU) request to offer the Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages with the stipulation that continuation of the program will depend upon meeting the criteria established by the institution and approved by the State Regents, as described below.

• Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages. Continuation beyond Fall 2011 will depend upon: Majors enrolled: a minimum of 7 students in Fall 2010; and Graduates: a minimum of 5 students in 2010-11.

BACKGROUND:

Academic Plan

OSU’s Academic Plan lists the following programs as academic priorities for 2006-2007: • Natural Resource Ecology and Management. o Related program modifications or additions – Bachelor of Science (BS), Master of Science (MS), Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.). • Fire and Emergency Management Administration, Geology, Music Arts, and Philosophy – Ph.D. • Optical Sciences and Photonics – MS. • Business Geographics – MS. • Master of Business Administration (MBA). o Addition of options in Accounting, Economics, Risk Management, Information Assurance, Telecommunications Management, Management Information Systems, Business Intelligence and Professional MBA. • Instructional Media – MS. • Adult Education – MS. • Student Affairs – MS. • Computer Engineering. o Convert from BS option to major. • Material Science and Engineering, Biotechnologies Engineering, or Energy Technologies Engineering - BS, MS, or Ph.D.

7

• Natural and Applied Sciences – MS o Add option in Health Care Administration through the Center for Health Sciences. • Online MS in Dietetics through the Great Plains Interactive Distance Education Alliance. • Meeting other needs as they arise.

APRA Implementation

Since 1991-92, OSU has deleted 60 degree and/or certificate programs while adding 52 degree and/or certificate programs.

Program Review

OSU offers 219 degree programs (87 baccalaureate, 69 masters, 44 doctoral, and 19 certificates), all of which were reviewed in the past five years with the exception of those programs with specialty accreditation. Programs with specialty accreditation are aligned with OSU’s program review schedule as appropriate. Thus, if a professional program received a ten-year accreditation, it would not be reviewed for ten years, which is an approved exception to State Regents’ policy.

Program Development Process

OSU faculty developed the proposal, which was reviewed and approved by institutional officials and OSU’s governing board. Upon submission, State Regents' staff completes a thorough review and confers with the institution for clarifications and revisions prior to presentation to the State Regents for consideration.

POLICY ISSUES:

This action is consistent with the State Regents’ Academic Program Approval policy.

ANALYSIS:

Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages

Program purpose. The proposed certificate program is designed to prepare teachers to teach to students with limited English proficiency. It will also prepare individuals to teach English abroad.

Program rationale and background. The proposed certificate program is designed to strengthen professional education by providing teachers with the knowledge and skills they need to work with a linguistically diverse student body. Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) is part of the English Department at OSU and the required classes are all currently offered on a regular basis as part of the curriculum for the Master of Arts in English with Teaching English as a Second Language (TESL)/Linguistics option. The proposed certificate program recognizes the global nature of education today and the need for teachers trained to work with English language learners, not only in Oklahoma, but in other countries as well. The coursework provides a scholarly background in the field and is structured to give students opportunities to apply their skills through activities such as generating teaching activities and lesson plans and carrying out peer teaching. In this way, the curriculum will enable students to develop skills important for teaching English to speakers of other languages.

Employment opportunities. OSU indicates that program graduates will be in high demand. According to the Tulsa World, Hispanic enrollment in the Tulsa School District has reached 20 percent and

8 continues to increase. A certificate in TESOL will give job applicants an advantage over those who have no credentials in the field. OSU states that, with a solid reputation in TESL/Linguistics, knowledgeable employers will recognize the value of the proposed certificate. OSU is confident there will be sufficient employment opportunities for program graduates.

Student demand. The new program is expected to enroll a minimum of 7 majors in Fall 2010 and graduate a minimum of 5 students in 2010-11.

Duplication and impact on existing programs. The University of Central Oklahoma offers a Master of Arts in English with an option in Teaching English as a Second Language. There are no institutions that offer a Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages. Due to the uniqueness of the program, and the demand documented by OSU, approval will not constitute unnecessary duplication.

Curriculum. The proposed program will consist of 12 total credit hours from the following areas (Attachment A): Required Core courses (9 credit hours) and Elective courses (3 credit hours). No new courses will be added. Faculty and staff. Existing faculty will teach the general education portion of the proposed degree program. No additional faculty resources are requested.

Support services. The library, facilities and equipment are adequate.

Financing. No additional funding is required for this program.

SUBJECT: Southwestern Oklahoma State University. Approval of request to offer the Associate in Applied Science in Criminal Justice and the Master of Science in Management.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve Southwestern Oklahoma State University’s (SWOSU) request to offer the Associate in Applied Science in Criminal Justice and the Master of Science in Management, with the stipulation that continuation of the programs will depend upon meeting the criteria established by the institution and approved by the State Regents, as described below.

• Associate in Applied Science in Criminal Justice. Continuation beyond Fall 2011 will depend upon: Majors enrolled: a minimum of 18 students in Fall 2010; and Graduates: a minimum of 5 students in 2010-11.

• Master of Science in Management. Continuation beyond Fall 2012 will depend upon: Majors enrolled: a minimum of 7 students in Fall 2011; and Graduates: a minimum of 6 students in 2011-12.

BACKGROUND:

Academic Plan

SWOSU’s Academic Plan lists the following institutional priorities:

• Implement the Bachelor of Spanish and the Bachelor of Science in Exercise programs. • Continue to develop courses for the Adult Degree Completion program. • Create a multidisciplinary program in Public Relations (Communication and Business). • Assess the effectiveness of our College Success course for revision and expansion. • Continue to encourage faculty and staff involvement in scholarly activities and grantsmanship. • Continue to maintain quality programs by hiring outstanding faculty candidates.

APRA Implementation

Since 1991-92, SWOSU has deleted 52 degree and/or certificate programs while adding 20 degree and/or certificate programs.

11

Program Review

SWOSU offers 63 degree programs (12 masters, 42 baccalaureate, 4 associate, 4 associate in applied science, and 1 first professional), all of which were reviewed in the past five years with the exception of those programs with specialty accreditation. Programs with specialty accreditation are aligned with SWOSU’s program review schedule as appropriate. Thus, if a professional program received a ten-year accreditation, it would not be reviewed for ten years, which is an approved exception to State Regents’ policy.

Program Development Process

SWOSU faculty developed the proposals, which were reviewed and approved by institutional officials and SWOSU’s governing board. Upon submission, State Regents' staff completes a thorough review and confers with the institution for clarifications and revisions prior to presentation to the State Regents for consideration.

POLICY ISSUES:

This action is consistent with the State Regents’ Academic Program Approval policy.

ANALYSIS:

Associate in Applied Science in Criminal Justice

Program purpose. The proposed degree program is designed to prepare students to meet increasing demands for knowledgeable correction officers within SWOSU’s service area. This program will provide students with a combination of general education, technical occupational specialty coursework and technical occupational support.

Program rationale and background. The proposed degree program will support the overall mission of SWOSU by providing career and technical programs to enable students to seek employment in various job fields, with completion of such programs culminating in the awarding of the Associate in Applied Science degree. The proposed program will meet western Oklahoma’s Department of Corrections’ needs and provide high-wage employment opportunities for graduates. The proposed program will also expand the educational model in which higher education and private industry work cooperatively toward a common goal.

Employment opportunities. SWOSU indicates that program graduates will be in high demand. The growing employment market needs certified workers in private, state, federal and local correction facilities. With the reopening of the North Fork Correctional Facility in Sayre, Oklahoma, demand for the proposed program has increased. As of December 2006, the prison housed approximately 600 inmates and plans to be at full capacity with 1440 inmates by Spring 2007. The facility now employs 113 officers with plans to build two more pods for prisoners, adding approximately 900 more inmates and an estimated 50 additional corrections officers. According to the Human Resources Director at North Fork Correctional Facility, a degree will allow employees the ability for promotion to senior officer or case manager, with a raise in pay. SWOSU is confident there will be sufficient employment opportunities for program graduates.

Student demand. The new program is expected to enroll a minimum of 18 majors in Fall 2010 and graduate a minimum of 5 students in 2010-11.

12

Duplication and impact on existing programs. Cameron University offers an Associate in Applied Science in Criminal Justice. Langston University offers an Associate in Arts in Criminal Justice. Eastern Oklahoma State College offers an Associate in Science in Criminal Justice. Murray State College offers an Associate in Science in Criminal Justice. Northeastern Oklahoma A & M College offers an Associate in Arts in Criminal Justice. Northern Oklahoma College offers an Associate in Arts in Criminal Justice Administration. Rogers State University offers an Associate in Arts in Criminal Justice Studies. Western Oklahoma College offers an Associate in Applied Science in Criminal Justice. Redlands Community College offers an Associate in Art in Pre-Criminal Justice and an Associate in Applied Science in Criminal Justice. Carl Albert State College offers an Associate in Arts in Pre-Law Criminal Justice. Seminole State College offers an Associate in Science in Criminal Justice. Rose State College offers an Associate in Science in Criminal Justice. Connors State College offers an Associate in Arts in Sociology, with an option in Criminal Justice. Tulsa Community College offers an Associate in Arts in Social Science with an option in Criminal Justice. Several institutions offer a Bachelor of Arts or a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice. Although there are many similar programs around the state, the local industry needs and the goal to serve students in the local area without unrealistic travel expectations sometimes makes duplication necessary and appropriate. SWOSU has provided evidence of such a circumstance for this particular program in its service area.

Curriculum. The proposed program will consist of 65 total credit hours from the following areas (Attachment A): general education courses (18 credit hours), technical occupational support courses (15 credit hours) and technical specialty courses (32 credit hours). No new courses will be added. Faculty and staff. Existing faculty will teach the general education portion of the proposed degree program. No additional faculty resources are requested.

Support services. The library, facilities and equipment are adequate.

Financing. No additional funding is required for this program.

Master of Science in Management

Program purpose. The proposed degree program is designed to prepare students in management, human resources, organizational design, jurisprudence and ethics. This program will also increase knowledge bases in one of the following areas: accounting, computer science, finance, management or marketing. Additionally, the program will contribute to individual development and the ability to effectively analyze, synthesize, evaluate and solve business problems and issues.

Program rationale and background. The proposed degree program will stress competence in an advanced study in a field of emphasis. As students graduate from college, entry level employees are most often employed initially in skill-based positions such as customer service or accounting. Many who do not graduate as business majors are subsequently employed in business positions. Very often, employers need people who are capable of assuming managerial responsibilities. The employees do not wish to spend one year taking the undergraduate classes that are required of non-business graduates to be accepted for the Master of Business Administration (086) degree. They do, however, want advanced education and training in the area that most directly relates to their need, which is managing and directing other employees. The degree focuses on these particular skills and is designed for the working adult with courses offered at night.

Employment opportunities. SWOSU indicates that program graduates will be in high demand. Students will be able to locate positions in many organizations.

BACKGROUND:

Academic Plan

TCC’s Academic Plan lists the following institutional priorities:

Metro Campus

• As TCC’s Metro Campus prepares for the new Center for Creativity, the Business and Information Technology, Communications, and Liberal Arts Divisions are collaborating to develop an umbrella Digital Media Program that will encompass an innovative core curriculum with Adobe Master Design Specialist, Digital Video, Graphic Design, Broadcasting, and Web Design degrees and certificates.

• Metro Campus is developing professional level computer learning centers, art and broadcast studios and college media functions. Distance Learning provides students opportunities to develop 2D and 3D graphics and animation, video and audio editing, design, photography, fine arts, print media and video production skills in classes and on-site internships. As a result, TCC will provide yet another set of opportunities for Tulsa economic development as skilled digital media specialists become available in our local workforce.

• Metro Campus proposes to address the shortage of training available in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) within the region through the development of additional courses in GIS and the development of a certificate program. GIS is unique because it is an analytical tool that can be applied to just about any discipline, as the following list describes. 1. Biology: GIS can be used to examine biological and ecological phenomena, such as endangered species habitat, vegetation patterns, and distributions of mammals can all be analyzed in a GIS. 2. Business: GIS is often used in site location analysis, e.g. one can determine the best location to build a new franchise such as Wendy’s, Subway or McDonalds. 3. Other areas of employability for GIS are criminal justice, homeland security, healthcare, natural resources, the oil and gas industry, real estate, and urban planning.

Northeast Campus

• The campus will develop a Programming Center of Excellence (PCE) with an emphasis on computer programming as a career path for students. Several initiatives will be developed to support this goal. The campus will develop a computer gaming program designed to introduce students to computer programming through video game development. National Science Foundation grant funding received through the existing partnership between TCC Northeast Campus and the University of Tulsa will help support the creation of the PCE.

• The campus will continue to expand the aviation sciences program to include an additional degree option and increased enrollments. 1. The campus will work in collaboration with the Federal Aviation Administration to develop a College Training Initiative in air traffic control. Financial support will be sought to help fund a 360 degree airport simulator. 2. The campus is developing marketing, recruitment, and enrollment process for F1 Visa students and the campus will continue to seek approval for M1 Visa students.

28

Southeast Campus

• The Southeast Campus will continue to provide a wide array of business, liberal arts, science, and workforce development programs that will support the educational, societal and economic needs of Tulsa. Under the direction of the SEC Facilitator for Corporate Needs and Hispanic Outreach, the Dean of Global Education and full-time Spanish faculty from Metro Campus, a certificate program in Healthcare Interpreting will be developed. This program will serve as a model for the development of other industry-specific workplace Spanish certificates.

• The Southeast Campus will increase its focus on workforce development needs in the region in order to identify and create appropriate new associate in applied science (AAS) degrees and certificate programs. 1. Levels I and II of Nursing and the Medical Laboratory Technology Program are expanding from their original location at the Metro Campus. 2. The Biotechnology Program is new to the SE Campus, but, potentially, has far reaching consequences throughout the College. 3. The Science and Math Division will work to implement the projects funded through the NSF/Advanced Technology Education Grant that was awarded during the 2006 academic year.

West Campus

• The West Campus will hire new faculty to help implement a new workforce development degree and certificate programs in Hospitality and Gaming Operations to meet growing area employment needs identified by professionals in the hospitality industry.

• The West Campus Child Development program and its counterpart program at the University of Oklahoma at Tulsa will implement a coordinated transfer degree in early childhood education that emphasizes infant and toddler development. Faculty at both institutions will also pursue collaborative research in this field. TCC will undergo accreditation of its Child Development academic program by the National Association for the Education of Young Children.

APRA Implementation

Since 1991-92, TCC has deleted 60 degree and/or certificate programs while adding 56 degree and/or Certificate programs.

The Certificate in Information Technologies Convergence is designed to provide opportunities for students to develop skills for a successful career in the field of information technology. There will be two options in the proposed program: Basics and Essentials. The proposed program will serve as a retention tool and pathway for students who enter at the Basics certificate level, progress to the Essentials level and finally complete an AAS degree.

Employment opportunities. TCC indicates a growing demand for skills and certification in the field of information technology. TCC is confident students will have ample employment opportunities.

Student demand. The new program is expected to enroll a minimum of 12 majors in Fall 2010 and graduate a minimum of 7 students in 2010-11.

32 Duplication and impact on existing programs. There are no certificate programs in Information Technologies Convergence offered in Oklahoma. There are several institutions in the state that offer degree programs in Information Technology. Due to uniqueness of the certificate and increasing student demand, approval will not constitute unnecessary duplication.

Curriculum. The proposed program will consist of 14-21 total credit hours with courses from the following area (Attachment D): Information Technologies Convergence (15 credit hours). There are no new courses. Faculty and staff. TCC indicates existing faculty will teach and oversee the proposed certificate program.

Support services. Facilities, library resources, and equipment are adequate.

Financing. TCC indicates the proposed certificate program will be funded through internal funds. No funding is requested from the State Regents.

Certificate in Information Technologies Convergence – Cisco Routing Basics

Program purpose. The purpose of the proposed certificate program is to prepare students with essential workplace skills and to obtain certification in Cisco specialization.

Program rationale and background. The Certificate in Information Technologies Convergence – Cisco Routing Basics is designed to provide a foundation and opportunities for students to develop skills for a successful career in the field of Information Technology. The proposed program will provide students with a path to the 30 hour certificate and eventually an AAS degree with a Cisco specialization. The certificate is the first step on the pathway. It will encourage student retention by providing another interval, along the way to further certificates and/or degrees.

Employment opportunities. TCC indicates a growing demand for skills and certification in the field of information technology. TCC is confident students will have ample employment opportunities.

Student demand. The new program is expected to enroll a minimum of 11 majors in Fall 2010 and graduate a minimum of 5 students in 2010-11.

Duplication and impact on existing programs. There are no certificate programs in Information Technologies Convergence offered in Oklahoma. There are several institutions in the state that offer degree programs in Information Technology. Due to the uniqueness of the certificate and increasing student demand, approval will not constitute unnecessary duplication.

Curriculum. The proposed program will consist of 15 total credit hours with courses from the following area (Attachment E): Information Technologies Convergence (15 credit hours). There are no new courses. Faculty and staff. TCC indicates existing faculty will teach and oversee the proposed certificate program.

Support services. Facilities, library resources, and equipment are adequate.

Financing. TCC indicates the proposed certificate program will be funded through internal funds. No funding is requested from the State Regents.

33 Associate in Science in Health Sciences – Pre-Nursing

Program purpose. The purpose of the proposed degree program is to provide a degree for students interested in pre-nursing who wish to transfer to a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree program at a four year institution.

Program rationale and background. The proposed Associate in Science (AS) in Health Sciences – a Pre – Nursing is a transfer degree program, preparing students for transfer to a four-year college or university. The proposed degree plan includes specialized courses required by BSN programs that are not included in a traditional AS degree, such as additional science and math courses. Often, students face barriers, with financial aid, when attempting to transfer. In order to reduce the significant level of financial aid problems, the proposed degree program will make the transfer process seamless. Additionally, with the current nursing major at TCC, tracking is not possible. Differentiation between students who are completing the AAS in Nursing and the AS in Health Sciences – Pre–Nursing for transfer will be available with the proposed program. Finally, by offering the proposed program, TCC will be able to offer career counseling through the Nursing division and assist students as they prepare for the BSN degree.

Employment opportunities. TCC indicates a growing demand for nurses. According to TCC, there is a critical nursing shortage in Oklahoma that is projected to increase by 2012. This is in agreement with previous studies and reports within the state and nation. TCC is confident students will have ample employment opportunities.

Student demand. The new program is expected to enroll a minimum of 30 majors in Fall 2010 and graduate a minimum of 20 students in 2010-11.

Duplication and impact on existing programs. There are several institutions that offer AAS, AS, and BSN degrees in Oklahoma. Connors State College offers an AS in Pre–Nursing. Northern Oklahoma College offers an AS in Pre–Professional with options in Pre–Professional Nursing and Pre– Baccalaureate. Carl Albert State College offers an AS in Allied Health with an option in Pre–Nursing. Due to the distance between institutions, and increasing student demand, approval will not constitute unnecessary duplication.

Curriculum. The proposed program will consist of 60 total credit hours, with courses from the following areas (Attachment F): general education (24 credit hours), degree program core (30 credit hours) and guided electives (6 credit hours). There are no new courses. Faculty and staff. TCC indicates existing faculty will teach and oversee the proposed degree program.

Support services. Facilities, library resources, and equipment are adequate.

Financing. TCC indicates the proposed degree program will be funded through internal funds. No funding is requested from the State Regents.

42 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 8:

Electronic Delivery of Degree Programs.

SUBJECT: University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center. Approval of request to offer an existing degree program and post-master’s certificate via online delivery.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center’s (OUHSC) request to offer the Master of Science in Nursing (027) degree and the Post-Master’s Certificate in Nursing (068), both with options in Nursing Education online, as described below.

BACKGROUND:

The State Regents granted provisional approval to OUHSC to offer the Master of Science in Rehabilitation Sciences and the Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene via electronic media on December 7, 2001 and May 24, 2002, respectively. As required by policy, continuing approval of the program was authorized by the State Regents based upon a successful best practice review in June 2004. Subsequently, four additional programs were approved. OUHSC is currently approved to offer the following programs through electronic media:

• Master of Science in Rehabilitation Sciences (052) • Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene (013) • Bachelor of Science in Radiation Sciences (078) • Certificate in Public Health (079) • Bachelor of Science in Nursing (026) • Master of Science in Nursing in Clinical Nurse Leader (026)

OUHSC requests authorization to offer the Master of Science in Nursing (027) and the Post-Master’s Certificate in Nursing (068) as outlined below.

POLICY ISSUES:

This action is consistent with the State Regents’ Electronically Delivered and Traditional Off-Campus Courses and Programs policy. Policy allows institutions that have conducted successful best practice reviews approved by the State Regents to request additional programs through an abbreviated process. The process calls for the President to send the following information to the Chancellor: 1) the name of the program, 2) delivery method/s, 3) information related to population served and student demand, 4)

43 cost and financing and 5) any substantial updates to previous best practices reviews. Additionally, faculty information for the request is required.

ANALYSIS:

OUHSC satisfactorily addresses the policy requirements for additional programs in the Electronically Delivered and Traditional Off-Campus Courses and Programs policy as summarized below.

• Faculty. With one exception, faculty teaching the online program and certificate will be full-time faculty. All faculty members teaching the program and certificate have five years experience or more teaching courses online. These faculty members have participated in training for online nursing education offered through the University of Indiana. Selected faculty members are involved in a national program funded by a Health Resources and Services Administration grant through Duke University to integrate technology into nursing education. The college regularly provides faculty development relating to instructional technology and web-based education, online learning strategies, and use of the learning platform.

Resources to assist faculty with online instruction include the following: an online faculty resource center that includes two web programmers who assist with course creation and content, two instructional design specialists who assist with quality control including ensuring interactive educational quality, two local area networks (LAN) specialists who maintain faculty hardware and software, one LAN specialist who supports and maintains server integrity, backup and restoration of data and provides oversight of the management learning system and one database administrator who assists with data management, research and reporting.

• Population Served and Student Demand. Nursing shortages are well documented in the United States. An added concern is a declining number of nursing faculty members to teach undergraduate and graduate nursing students. A 2004 survey conducted by the American Association of Colleges of Nursing determined that 32,797 qualified applicants to baccalaureate, master’s and doctoral programs were not accepted. The major reason cited for the inability to accept the applications (47.8 percent of respondents) was insufficient faculty. Additionally, the average age of nursing faculty is 52 years. With many nursing faculty nearing retirement age and a limited number available to replace them, the issue becomes a critical need. A recent Oklahoma study conducted in 2006 Governor’s Council for Workforce and Economic Development identified the percentage of vacant nursing faculty positions in Oklahoma at 15 percent. This figure does not take into consideration current faculty nearing, at or beyond retirement age. A more flexible educational program through online delivery and the availability of multiple options for completion online will help meet the need for faculty appointments.

• Delivery Method. The program will be offered online. Students have several options for completing the program within the online environment. It may be completed in 14-16 months of full-time study in regular semesters or in two years of part-time study in the summer, fall and spring or through 12 months of full-time modular study in the new accelerated master’s degree educator option. A student who matriculates through the curriculum using this option takes one of eight courses at a time in a one-month period along with two practicum courses.

• Cost and Financing. Tuition cost is $9,109 (in-state) and $21,084 (out-of-state), respectively for 32 credit hours. Financial support of the program is funded through an electronic media fee of $110 per credit hour. Additional funding is also provided through grants from the State Regents and Foundation Management, Inc.

44 • Update to Previous Best Practice Review. There is no update to the best practices review.

Programs that are delivered electronically must also be approved by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association (HLC). In most cases, HLC requires State Regents’ approval before reviewing electronically delivered programs.

Based on staff analysis and institutional expertise, approval of OUHSC’s request to offer an existing program and post master’s certificate through electronic media online delivery as described above is recommended.

45 46 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 9:

Teacher Shortage Employment Incentive Program (TSEIP).

SUBJECT: Teacher Shortage Employment Incentive Program.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents post the proposed permanent rule amendments for the Teacher Shortage Employment Incentive Program (TSEIP) and initiate the process for the adoption of permanent rule revisions.

BACKGROUND:

During the 2000 legislative session, Senate Bill 1393 expressed intent that the State Regents implement a program to reimburse student loan expenses for science and mathematics students who teach these subjects in Oklahoma’s public schools for at least five (5) years. The 2001 legislature amended HB 1499 to ensure that all who meet the provisions of TSEIP are eligible to receive an incentive payment based on a formula.

Section 610:25-27-3, under The Application Procedure, requires that the deadline for application to the program is while a student is enrolled in a mathematics or science education major at the undergraduate or graduate level. It is possible that a student might graduate in one of these majors without completing an application. Sub-paragraph (g) of this section allows for the option of a one year waiver for students who meet all of the requirements of TSEIP but fail to enroll because of extenuating circumstances.

In section 610:25-27-5, under Educational loan obligations for participant(s) with outstanding student loan debt, sub-paragraph (2) deletes the timeline for notifying the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education (OSRHE) as it too narrowly limits the participant. In sub-paragraph (3), the wording change allows for more flexibility in considering the merits of each case.

In section 610:25-27-6, under Participant eligibility for benefits of the TSEIP, the deletion in sub- paragraph (2) removes directions that are irrelevant and correctly identifies the source of the rule. In sub- paragraph (4) and (4.B) clarifying language is added. Sub-paragraph (5) allows for the possibility of unexpected and unavoidable actions of the school district.

In section 610:25-27-7, under Benefits to be disbursed under the program, the deletion in sub-paragraph (c) and the addition of the word “Participant” and “participants” is consistent with other sections of the rules. The deletion of the words “lenders/services of” reflects the necessity of allowing the participant to make the loan payments as many have already completely paid the loans and are allowed to keep the TSEIP payment. The addition of “by the Participant” in sub-paragraph (e) clarifies whose responsibility it is to repay the loans.

In section 610:25-27-9, under Verification and notification requirements, in sub-paragraph (a.1,2) the deadline for submitting forms has been removed. Depending on a spring or fall semester graduation,

47 Participants are eligible for the incentive payment at different times of the year. In sub-paragraph (c), deleting the deadline allows Participants to make changes to their name and address information at the same time as submitting the Employment Compliance Form.

POLICY ISSUES:

Rules governing the TSEIP program must be adopted pursuant to APA rules. APA changes outlined in this agenda item are necessary to be consistent in the administration of the program.

ANALYSIS:

Undergraduates who uphold the requirements of the TSEIP are eligible for the incentive payment. Approval of posting of the APA rule amendments is recommended.

48 TITLE 610. STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION CHAPTER 25. STUDENT FINANCIAL AID AND SCHOLARSHIPS SUBCHAPTER 27. TEACHER SHORTAGE EMPLOYMENT INCENTIVE PROGRAM

51 (b) Each year the benefit to all eligible teachers will be determined on, or as of June 30, for the group of teachers that achieved eligibility for TSEIP benefits (having satisfied all program requirements) by the end of that school year. If, in any given year, funds are not available for employment incentive payments at the maximum amount, due to a reduction in employment incentive payments as determined by the Chancellor, the amount to be disbursed to all eligible participants will be reduced uniformly. Upon distribution of that amount, the obligation of the program to those eligible teachers shall be satisfied. The foregoing is true even if no funds are available for disbursement.

610:25-27-9. Verification and notification requirements (a) Verification requirements which must be satisfied prior to disbursement of program benefits include: (1) An Employment Compliance Form submitted to OSRHE by June 30th after the fifth year of eligible teaching service.

53 54 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 11-a:

E & G Budget Allocations.

SUBJECT: Allocation of Resident Teacher Professional Development Funds for FY2008.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve the reimbursement of $1,877,309 as shown on Resolution No. 4768 and authorize the Chancellor to approve revised budgets for State System institutions to incorporate the reimbursement.

BACKGROUND:

The provisions of House Bill 1549 created the Teacher Preparation Act (OTPA) that provided additional funding and authorized the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education to upgrade the quality of teacher preparation in Oklahoma. In 1997, OTPA’s name was changed to Teacher Professional Development Residency Program (TPDRP). The purpose of TPDRP is to improve the caliber of elementary and secondary school teachers certified to teach in Oklahoma public schools.

TPDRP provides for a three-member Residency Committee for each first-year teacher licensed by the State Board of Education. A Residency Committee consists of 1) a mentor teacher, 2) a principal or assistant principal designated by the local board and 3) a teacher educator from an Oklahoma college or university.

POLICY ISSUES:

This action is consistent with the Teacher Professional Development Residency Programs policy.

ANALYSIS:

Residency Committee reimbursement to each institution is based on the workload of the previous year, reflecting both the number of committees served and miles traveled. Effective January 1, 2007, the mileage reimbursement rate increased from 44.5 to 48.5 cents per mile traveled. This increase is reflected in the reimbursement calculations - an 8.25 % increase from the previous year. The 2007-08 allocations total $1,561,157 to 12 State System institutions and $316,152 to ten independent institutions. The combined total is $1,877,309 which is the amount allocated by the State Regents appropriations. The average number of committees for the 2006-2007 school year is 2845. From that total, the average number of alternatively certified teachers is 698. The allocation summary table and Resolution No. 4768 are attached.

AGENDA ITEM # 11-b:

E & G Budget Allocations.

SUBJECT: Approval of cash draw schedule for OSU capital project funded through SB No. 90XX.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve the final draw schedule as submitted by Oklahoma State University and allot funding for the capital project as requested on the attached schedule.

BACKGROUND: The Oklahoma State Legislature passed Senate Bill No. 90XX, which authorized the transfer of $80,000,000 to a newly created Comprehensive University Capital Projects Revolving Fund. According to Section 2 of the bill, “All monies accruing to the credit of the fund are hereby appropriated and may be budgeted and expended by the State Regents for the capital expenditures related to [the purposes listed below]. Expenditures from said fund shall be made upon warrants issued by the State Treasurer against claims filed as prescribed by law with the Director of State Finance for approval and payment.”

On September 14, 2006, the State Regents approved the allocation of funding for the projects listed below. Each institution was requested to submit estimated draw schedules to be used for allotment purposes upon State Regents approval.

POLICY ISSUES: The recommendation is consistent with State Regents’ policy and actions.

ANALYSIS: The legislature has designated the following projects as outlined in the bill that should be funded through the Comprehensive University Capital Projects Revolving Funds. The attached draw schedule represents the final project to be submitted for Regents’ approval. University of Oklahoma: $10,500,000 Diabetes Center $14,000,000 OU Tulsa Schusterman Campus Projects $14,000,000 Oklahoma Comprehensive Cancer Center $ 1,500,000 Tulsa Medical Clinic

Oklahoma State University $20,000,000 OSU Medical Authority $10,000,000 Agricultural Experiment Station Facility, Ardmore $ 5,000,000 Technology and Research Park, Stillwater $ 5,000,000 Sensor Center Facilities

59

The schedule represents the anticipated cash flow need for the Agricultural Experiment Station Facility to be located in Ardmore, OK. The work is anticipated to begin with a land purchase in November of this year, with a design phase from December 2007 through May 2008 and construction beginning in June 2008. Final completion is estimated as November 2009. Funds are being held until requested for payment of invoices on hand.

62 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 11-c:

E & G Budget Allocations.

SUBJECT: Allocation of Concurrent Enrollment Reimbursement Waivers, Summer 2007.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve allocations to the institutions for reimbursement of tuition waivers awarded to senior high school students during the Summer 2007 term.

BACKGROUND:

In September 2005, the State Regents adopted a policy, as authorized by 70 O.S. Supp. 2005 § 628.13, to allow the reimbursement of tuition waivers awarded to senior high school students for up to six credit hours per semester beginning the Fall 2005 term. Concurrent enrollment tuition waivers awarded by the institutions are not being subject to the 3.5 percent of E&G Budget, Part I limitation.

The institutions reported and State Regents approved reimbursements in June 2006 for the tuition waivers awarded during the Fall 2006 and Spring 2007 terms. This item will cover reimbursements for waivers awarded during the Summer 2007 term.

POLICY ISSUES:

This report is consistent with the State Regents’ policy.

ANALYSIS:

For the Summer 2007 term, senior high schools students received waivers totaling $214,967. The total number of hours waived totaled 3,416 and the number of students totaled 895. The number of summer participants exceeded the 2006 Summer term by 212 students. This reimbursement represents tuition costs only as the students are responsible for payment of fees, books and supplies.

The carryover funding from the first year of the program will fund these payments as the $2.5 million funded in June 2007 was fully-committed for the reimbursements for the Fall 2006 and Spring 2007 terms.

64 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 11-d:

E&G Budget Allocations.

SUBJECT: Approval of Educational and General Budgets of one-time reimbursement funds.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve a one-time allocation to the University of Oklahoma in the amount of $1,284,234 and to Oklahoma State University in the amount of $1,339,150. These funds represent the reimbursement of revenue shortfall in the FY07 for OCIA Debt Service payments.

BACKGROUND:

As a result of the declaration by the Board of Equalization in December 2006 of reduced estimates in the FY2007 fiscal year lottery proceeds of approximately 33%, or $15.5 million in appropriations to the State System, the Chancellor officially notified institutional presidents that should the legislature not act on a supplemental funding request, institutional allotments of state appropriations would require a reduction by an amount equal to their institution’s share of the remaining OCIA capital bond debt obligations. The State Regents did approve a reduction for each of the participating institutions at their May 25, 2007, meeting.

In further action at the June 28, 2007, meeting, the Regents allocated a portion of the FY2008 funding to the institutions to replace the one-time shortfall taken in the last month of the FY07. This action will incorporate the University of Oklahoma and the Oklahoma State University system into the one-time reimbursement process.

POLICY ISSUES:

The recommendation is consistent with Regents’ policy and approved budget principles.

ANALYSIS:

The recommendation is equivalent to the pro-rata share of the reduction assessed to the University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University for the OCIA Debt Service payments for May and June 2007. The legislature did not act upon a supplemental request requiring that the debt service payments be assessed at the institutional level resulting in a reduction in the FY2007 allocations. This action will reimburse the institutions for the revenue shortfall assessed to them and allows for expenditure of the funds during the FY08.

The allocation for the one-time funding will be funded through unallocated interest earnings accumulated on capital funds held on behalf of the University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State University.

65 66 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 11-e:

E & G Budget Allocations.

SUBJECT: Approval of allocations to Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences and the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center from the revenue derived from the sale of cigarettes and tobacco products.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve the allocation of $912,310.80 to Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences (OSU CHS) and $912,310.80 to the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center (OUHSC) from revenue collected from the taxes placed on the sale of cigarettes and tobacco products.

BACKGROUND:

The Oklahoma Legislature passed House Bill No. 2660 in May 2004, designating a portion of the revenue collected from taxes on the sale of cigarettes and tobacco products to be allocated for specific purposes at OUHSC and OSU CHS. This revenue will be deposited into dedicated funds, the “Comprehensive Cancer Center Debt Service Revolving Fund” at the Health Sciences Center and the “Oklahoma State University College of Osteopathic Medicine Revolving Fund” at OSU CHS. The bill states that the revenue collected shall be evenly deposited into accounts designated at these entities, for the purpose of servicing the debt obligations incurred to construct a nationally designated comprehensive cancer center at the OU Health Sciences Center and for the purpose of servicing debt obligations for construction of a building dedicated to telemedicine, for the purchase of telemedicine equipment and to provide uninsured/indigent care in Tulsa County through the OSU College of Osteopathic Medicine. The State Regents approved the first allocation of these funds in their meeting of May 27, 2005.

POLICY ISSUES:

The recommendation is consistent with Regents’ policy and approved budget principles.

ANALYSIS:

The fund currently has on deposit $1,824,621.60. This amount is sufficient for a transfer of $912,310.80 each to OSU CHS and OUHSC. The OU Health Sciences Center will hold their funds in an account designated for the construction of a Comprehensive Cancer Center to be expended at a future date. The OSU Center for Health Sciences will expend their funds on the following approved program components: (1) indigent patient clinical care, (2) telemedicine equipment and (3) facility upgrades.

The current allocation to each institution, including this allocation, totals to $11,224,586.37.

67 OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION RESOLUTION NO. 4769

Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 12:

Agency Operations.

SUBJECT: Approval of FY-2008 Purchases exceeding $100,000.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve FY-2008 purchases for amounts that are $100,000 or greater that need to be effective prior to October 25, 2007.

BACKGROUND:

Agency purchases are presented for State Regents’ action. They relate to previous board action and the approved agency budgets.

POLICY ISSUES:

The recommended action is consistent with the State Regents’ purchasing policy which requires State Regents’ approval of purchases in excess of $100,000.

ANALYSIS:

The items below exceed $100,000 and require State Regents’ approval prior to issuing a purchase order.

Purchases Over $100,000.

Visual Image for $425,000 for advertising for Oklahoma’s Promise.

Oklahoma’s Promise (or, more formally, the Oklahoma Higher Learning Access Program) was created by the Oklahoma Higher Learning Access Act in 1992, and allows eighth, ninth and 10th grade students who enroll in the program to receive scholarships that will pay for their Oklahoma public college tuition if they are income qualified and meet other requirements. To qualify, students must take certain required courses and make good grades overall. Students must also attend school regularly and stay out of trouble outside the classroom to remain eligible.

Visual Image is to conduct and analyze research of current awareness levels and perceptions of Oklahoma’s Promise and create and implement a statewide communications effort designed to increase the number of students that are enrolled in the program and increase awareness of and affinity for the program among opinion leaders and the general public.

Three Agencies for GSL Collections:

OSI for $220,000.00, VanRu for $220,000.00, and Premiere Credit for $220,000.00.

69

This contract has been developed by OGSLP to provide collection services on defaulted student loans. When OGSLP guaranteed loans are declared in default and purchased by OGSLP, every effort shall be made to ensure compliance with federally required post default due diligence and to collect the outstanding balances on these loans. OGSLP will use the services of professional collection servicers to assist in performing post default due diligence and collecting on those loans that have been declared in default. The purpose for contracting for collection services is to increase the collections of these defaulted loans.

This amount is lower than previous requisitions do to the remainder of FY08 only including a nine month period. The initial nine months of the new contract will primarily include fees for regular, AWG and consolidation payments. The Rehabilitation program, which is now a large part of collections, requires the borrower to make nine consecutive on-time monthly payments over a 10 month period in order to have the loan rehabilitated. Only a few borrowers may reach the point of rehabilitation during the first nine months of the new contract, as the majority will complete the rehabilitation program in FY09. The current requisitions in place for FY08 for the three current vendors: OSI, VanRu, and Zwicker & Associates include amounts for fees for borrower payments and rehabilitations for active repayment accounts that will continue following the end of the current contract September 30, 2007 through June 30, 2008, as identified in the current contract.

XAP for $587,500.00 for maintenance of student portal and $160,000 for maintenance of the job seeker portal.

This is annual maintenance paid to XAP. The Department of Commerce and the Regents for Higher Education entered into an agreement to develop and implement an informational portal to promote educational and career information, planning and workforce development. This project was approved in the September 2005 Regents meeting.

70 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 13:

SUBJECT: Master Lease Purchase Program.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents authorize for submission to the Council of Bond Oversight the 2007C Master Lease Series. The total projects from seven entities amount to approximately $16.6 million.

BACKGROUND:

The Oklahoma State Legislature approved in May 1999, Senate Bill 151, which authorized the State Regents to establish a master lease program. State System entities may enter into lease agreements for projects having a project value of $50,000 up to a maximum of $10 million. The terms of the lease agreements will vary by the useful life of the equipment purchases.

The State Regents’ office works in conjunction with the Oklahoma Development Finance Authority (ODFA) to administer this program with each institutional lease purchase agreement submitted to the Council of Bond Oversight for approval. The institutional governing boards have given prior approval of all equipment purchases submitted under this program.

POLICY ISSUES:

Recommendation is consistent with current State Regents’ policy.

ANALYSIS:

The Master Lease Purchase Program provides the State System entities a method of financing major personal property acquisitions at significant efficiencies from both financing aspects and administration. This program is designed to provide flexibility in acquiring new capital equipment by allowing lease purchase payments or debt service payments to be made on a monthly basis from current capital and operating funds. Individual sublease agreements will be entered into with each participating institution and the State Regents, under the terms of the Master Lease Purchase Agreement. The institution’s fee structure shall be based on the individualized purchase package and interest rates available on the day of bond pricing.

79 80 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 14-a:

Investment.

SUBJECT: Endowment Trust Fund Investment Performance and Annual Distribution.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve a distribution in the amount of $15,797,210.01 for fiscal year 2007 and $13,211,192.23 for prior years’ carryover-- totaling approximately $29 million for institutional expenditure from eligible Endowment Trust Fund accounts.

BACKGROUND:

With the allocation at the June 28, 2007 meeting, the State Regents have allocated a total of $177.7 million to the Endowment Trust Fund for chairs, professorships and lectureships from state appropriations since inception of the program in 1988. The last two years allocations are dedicated to bond debt service. These allocations are to support the establishment of faculty chairs and professorships and for related activities to improve the quality of instruction and research at colleges and universities in the State System. State Regents have also allocated $18.8 million for the Langston University Endowment since 1999. In addition to state funding, the fund contains private matching funds and unrestricted gifts.

In September 2003 the endowment distribution policy was revised to allow for 4.5 percent of the three- year average market value at June 30 to be available for distribution. This revision became effective with the FY04 distribution. Also, included for the eighth year is the available distribution for the Langston University Endowment.

POLICY ISSUES:

Investments for the Endowment Trust Fund have been made in compliance with the State Regents’ investment policy and relevant State Statutes.

STAFF ANALYSIS:

The market value of the trust fund was $398,325,022 as of June 30, 2007. In FY07 the fund earned 8.8 percent, net of fees.

The State Regents’ current investment policy provides that “the investment committee shall determine the distribution...The distribution will not necessarily be equivalent to actual earnings during the year, but to maintain a distribution rate from year to year that, as a goal, will approximate 4.5 percent of the asset values based on an average of the past three years for the endowment trust fund.” The attached distribution schedules reflect the distributions available for each eligible Endowment Trust Fund accounts and are presented for approval.

96 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 14-b:

Investment.

SUBJECT: Approval of revisions to the investment policy and approval of new managers

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve the revised investment policy and investments with two additional investment managers.

BACKGROUND:

The investment policy outlines the responsibility of the State Regents to determine a recommended asset allocation policy and approval of investment managers. In response to the current turbulence in the financial market environment, Hammond and Associates has recommended that the target asset policy be shifted in favor of a less equity and fixed income position and broadened to allow for continued diversification and investment in hedge funds.

POLICY ISSUES:

This item is consistent with Regents’ practice on adoption of policy revisions.

ANALYSIS: Manger Recommendations:

WLR Recovery Fund IV, LP. This fund will invest in securities of companies in bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings and will consist of public and private debt securities including distressed bank loans, trade claims and equity-linked securities issued upon reorganization or conversion. The recommended investment is $5 million.

Quinlan Private European Strategic Property Fund. This fund will pursue value-added/core-plus and development or major renovation related real estate related investment in the Western European countries. The fund will invest in a diverse range of property types in the target markets. The recommended investment is $4 million.

K. G. Redding. This fund has recently been acquired by a new management firm and after a review process the recommendation is to terminate the relationship and reinvest the funds in new hedge funds. The value of the investment at July 31, 2007, was approximately $5.8 million.

Vanguard Developed Markets Index Fund. This fund is an index of two Vanguard Index Funds— European Stock Index and Pacific Stock Index—that replicates the MSCI EAFE index. The recommended investment is approximately $20.5 million or 5% of the portfolio. The investment will be funded in part by the recommended elimination of the Morgan Stanley International Small Cap allocation of approximately $9.3 million and a reduction in the allocation to GMO of approximately $11 million.

96.1 Hammond and Associates recommends the investment of funds in the following hedge fund managers as implementation of the policy changes that are also recommended in this item.

• Och-Ziff (Asia) -- $5.5 million -- This fund is recommended as a replacement to the Och Ziff Overseas Fund that is part of the current portfolio. The objective of the fund is to invest in absolute returns with low volatility by exploiting pricing inefficiencies in Asian companies.

• Octavian Advisors -- $4.75 million – This fund specializes in special situations outside the US to deploy capital among its investment strategies of event-driven, risk arbitrage credit, distressed and private investments.

• Blackstone Distressed -- $5.5 million – This fund focuses primarily on financially distressed companies and seeks to invest in securities that are believed to be incorrectly values and represent an opportunity for risk-adjusted returns over time.

• Delta Prism -- $3.0 million – This fund’s objective is to maximize long-term returns in a variable market and economic conditions. The focus is investment in aggressively managed portfolios of primarily publicly traded US equities.

• Viking Global -- $3.9 million – The goal of this fund is to achieve meaningfully higher returns than those implied by the broad market indices with less risk than the market. The strategy is stock selection based on fundamental analysis of companies located around the world.

• Drawbridge Global Macro -- $4.0 million – This fund invests in global fixed-income commodities, currency and equity markets and their related derivates with the goal of superior total return over the intermediate and long-term.

Policy Recommendations:

The following changes in TABLE B of the investment policy are recommended to slightly shift the asset allocation targets to less concentration in the equity and fixed income markets and balancing with hedge funds.

Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 15:

Minority Teacher Recruitment Center.

SUBJECT: Allocation of Minority Teacher Recruitment Center budget to fund Pre-Collegiate Partnerships programs and Collegiate Partnership grant.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve the proposed Minority Teacher Recruitment Center (MTRC) Pre-Collegiate and Collegiate Program expenditures.

BACKGROUND:

The Oklahoma State Regents’ Minority Teacher Recruitment Center was created in 1990 through House Bill 1017 and is charged with developing and implementing programs to recruit and to retain teachers in Oklahoma public schools.

Pre-Collegiate Programs: The MTRC supports the implementation of three pre-collegiate teacher recruitment programs in Oklahoma schools – Academic Commitment to Education (ACE), Leadership, Education and Achievement Program (LEAP) and Future Educators Association (FEA). These programs include curriculum, professional development and grants to provide additional resources for teachers to furnish supplemental materials and enhance learning opportunities for students which promote academic achievement and meet the goals of the MTRC.

Since its inception in 2003-2004, the ACE curriculum has been implemented in over 30 high schools. ACE incorporates the study of teacher competencies with teaching related experiences and offers intellectual challenges that lead to student growth and academic achievement.

The Leadership, Education and Achievement Program (LEAP), piloted during 2004-2005, was fully implemented in the 2005-2006 school year. Six schools were included in the first year pilot. This past year, LEAP was incorporated into 21 schools and 76 classrooms. LEAP is designed to help students with strong academic potential succeed in high school and college.

MTRC funds Future Educators Association (FEA) chapter start-up kits and grants. Sponsored nationally by Phi Delta Kappa, these extra-curricular organizations give all high school students interested in teaching careers an opportunity to explore the profession and gain an understanding of the educational field.

Collegiate Programs: Since 1996, collaborative efforts by MTRC and teacher education programs in the state have led to partnerships that help address teacher recruitment from a campus-based perspective and take advantage of the unique strengths of each institution. Through these partnerships, students have had

97 opportunities to interact with higher education personnel and learn about college preparation and the teaching profession.

Teacher Conferences: Each year, the MTRC sponsors both new and recurring conferences and activities designed to enhance the image of teaching and to assist in teacher recruitment efforts.

POLICY ISSUES:

The MTRC has a legislative directive (HB 2557) to develop recruiting programs for potential teachers, including pre-collegiate curricular courses and future teacher clubs that emphasize school success and the opportunity to investigate teaching as a career choice and collegiate activities which deal with issues such as retention and placement.

ANALYSIS:

To increase high school graduation rates, more schools are adopting the Ninth Grade Academy concept. In those schools LEAP is the default curriculum. Three additional high schools (12 classes) are being added in the 2007-2008 academic year. The ACE program is being used by schools as a “Grow Your Own” teacher recruitment program in anticipation of filling vacancies caused by the expectation of an increasing number of teacher retirements in the next five years.

Attachment

100 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM #16-a:

Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR).

SUBJECT: Approval of Matching Funds for the Department of Energy.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve EPSCoR matching funds in the amount of $175,000 to Oklahoma State University for the first year of a three-year Department of Energy award.

BACKGROUND:

The Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research in Oklahoma has served as a major stimulus to improvements in the research infrastructure and in the competitiveness of Oklahoma researchers. The State Regents have made significant commitment of resources to support EPSCoR programs in Oklahoma through matching funds provided for EPSCoR grants. Seven federal agencies have EPSCoR or similar programs to encourage the development of competitive sponsored research in states that have historically had little federally sponsored research. The federal agencies are the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Energy, the Department of Defense, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the United States Department of Agriculture. Oklahoma is one of 27 states that participate in a program at one or more federal agencies.

For FY08, the State Regents approved an allocation of $3,449,647 for Oklahoma EPSCoR projects.

POLICY ISSUES:

This recommendation is consistent with State Regents’ policy and actions.

ANALYSIS:

In January 2007, the Chancellor, in his role of Chairman of the EPSCoR Advisory Committee, endorsed the proposal “Oklahoma Center for High Energy Physics Research” at Oklahoma State University. This proposal was a competing renewal of the existing Center following an initial three years of funding. The proposal was submitted to the U.S. Department of Energy and received approval for a three-year award beginning August 2007 in the amount of $1,335,000. Participating universities will provide $870,299 in matching funds over this time period. The Regents’ EPSCoR allocation will provide matching funds of $175,000 per year for three years.

It is recommended that the State Regents approve the commitment of these matching funds for this Department of Energy award to Oklahoma State University.

EPSCoR Matching Program.

SUBJECT: Allocation of funds.

BACKGROUND:

The University of Central Oklahoma is once again hosting a day-long poster display and symposium for undergraduate students. The State Regents’ support enables students to attend without a cost. An estimated 800 students from the regional universities will participate.

POLICY ISSUES:

The recommendation is consistent with State Regents’ policy and actions.

ANALYSIS:

The University of Central Oklahoma requests $30,000 in support for the eighth annual research exposition and symposium. This support provides display boards, flyers, program, expenses for speakers and judges and other meeting expenses. The State Regents along with several additional sponsors have agreed to host this annual event.

144 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 20-c (1):

GEAR UP.

SUBJECT: GEAR UP “Plan4College” Grants to Community Based Organizations.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents ratify grants to community and faith- based organizations to create “Plan4College” sites.

BACKGROUND:

Through its involvement with the Southern Regional Education Board (SREB), the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education’s GEAR UP project is prepared to support the creation of five “Plan4College” sites in community and faith-based organizations (CBO’s) in Oklahoma. Plan4College sites are facilities dedicated to delivering the message to students and families that postsecondary education is desirable, attainable and affordable. Each site is unique and may be located in public schools, libraries and other community facilities. Plan4College sites are patterned after similar sites in other SREB states, where a variety of college access activities are incorporated into a single location. These activities include:

• Access to computers and the Internet where students can research colleges and scholarships, including the Oklahoma’s Promise scholarship program. • Tutoring – activities that support classroom instruction in core academic courses. • College awareness counseling – activities that inform students and parents about the college experience including college fairs, printed materials about college and visits to college campuses. • Financial aid counseling –activities that inform families about the costs of college and how to pay for college. • Mentoring – student counseling or advisement activities including mentor coordination and training. The implementation of Plan4College sites will be limited in 2007-2008 and closely monitored in order to assess their effectiveness. If successful, the number of Plan4College sites will be expanded in follow-on years.

POLICY ISSUES:

The provision of early intervention activities and scholarships is a required component of the U.S. Department of Education’s Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs (GEAR UP). The federal GEAR UP program also endorses the involvement of community-based organizations as partners to ensure local sustainability of early intervention strategies for college readiness. Through the creation of Plan4College sites, both of these objectives are addressed.

145

ANALYSIS:

The Southern Regional Education Board (SREB) has promoted the creation of facilities like Plan4College sites through its GO Alliance program and has provided training workshops for GEAR UP staff as well as consultation in the creation of the sites. For 2007-2008, the GEAR UP staff has solicited five Oklahoma community schools and organizations that have agreed to create Plan4College sites:

• Ardmore Public Library, Ardmore • Bennington Public Schools, Bennington • Boswell Public Library, Boswell • Robert L. Williams Library, Durant • Booker T. Washington Center, Idabel

Each site will enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (attached) for receipt of a one-time grant ($2,000 each) that will support creation of the Plan4College sites. Total funding for the grants is $10,000 federal dollars, all derived from the State Regents’ current GEAR UP grant award. No state funding is involved.

In September 2006, the State Regents ratified grants to eight community and faith-based organizations (CBO’s) to promote the Oklahoma’s Promise scholarship program and provide college aspiration activities for students and families. The grants were funded through the State Regents’ Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs (GEAR UP) Federal project. Five of the eight CBO’s have increased Oklahoma’s Promise scholarship enrollment significantly at their partner school sites as compared to similarly situated schools and, additionally have provided insight to GEAR UP and the Oklahoma’s Promise program in outreach strategies for middle and high school students from low- income communities. Continued funding of grants to these four CBO’s will build on successes in 2006- 2007.

POLICY ISSUES:

The provision of scholarships is a required component of the U.S. Department of Education’s Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs (GEAR UP). In its 1999 proposal OHLAP was designated as Oklahoma GEAR UP’s scholarship component, providing priority students in selected Oklahoma schools with the required financial assistance. The federal GEAR UP program also endorses the involvement of community-based organizations as partners to ensure local sustainability of early intervention strategies for college readiness.

ANALYSIS:

The five community and faith-based organizations (CBO’s) that received grant funding in 2006-2007 worked diligently to develop outreach strategies that worked best in their local community. The following charts describe year 1 project results.

Oklahoma’s Promise Oklahoma’s Promise Numerical Enrollment at Beginning of Enrollment at End of Project Percent Change Increase Project (2006) (2007) 70 122 52 174%

The Target Schools/Oklahoma’s Promise Enrollment Results above are encouraging, especially when one considers that the average numerical increase in comparable high schools (total enrollment and percent low income) is less than 20 new enrollments per year; however all of the CBO’s agreed that getting complete enrollments was a challenge. Strategies using comprehensive telephone campaigns, incentives and leveraging tax assistance programs were effective in helping CBO’s increase scholarship program enrollments. The “lessons learned” by one CBO are typical of other project participants: • Students and families have a transient nature. A backlog of incomplete applications developed as phone numbers and addresses changed. • School GPA lowers the number of eligible students. Transfers, drop-outs, and suspensions have an effect on GPA and impact the recruiting base of targeted students. • Parents respond to deadlines, not incentives. The CBO tried family incentives to reduce incomplete applications on file but was more effective when letters were sent to the families. The letter had a specific deadline and families responded.

The timeline for the continuing project is from the present until June 30, 2008 which is also the deadline for enrollment of eligible high school sophomores in the coming school year. Total funding for the continuing grants is $96,000 federal dollars – all derived from the State Regents’ current GEAR UP grant award. No state funding is involved. The attached chart lists the community and faith-based organizations that are recommended for continued funding, school district/site served, higher education partner and recommended grant amount:

151 152 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 20-d:

No Child Left Behind.

SUBJECT: Acceptance of Improving Teacher Quality grant funds from the U.S. Department of Education.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents accept grant funds in the amount of $851,844 from the U.S. Department of Education.

BACKGROUND:

The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) reauthorized the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA). Title II, Part A of NCLB authorizes the Improving Teacher Quality State Grants. Approximately three percent of the total annual funds available to states are given to the state agency of higher education (SAHE). Funding is awarded through subgrants to eligible partnerships that provide teachers and administrators long-term, sustained, high-quality professional development that focuses on practices grounded in scientifically based research to increase student achievement. Eligible partnerships consist of at least one from each of the following: an institution of higher education that has a division that prepares teachers and principals, a school of arts and sciences and a high-need local education agency (LEA). A high-need LEA is defined as serving children who are from families with incomes not less than 20 percent below the poverty line.

POLICY ISSUES:

This action is consistent with the State Regents’ Teacher Education policy.

ANALYSIS:

In September 2007, staff will conduct an NCLB grant information and technical meeting for those interested in writing a subgrant to the State Regents. Applicants are encouraged to focus on professional development to both schools on the poverty list (fifty percent of school districts in Oklahoma) and those on the Needs Improvement List that have not met Annual Yearly Progress. An external evaluation will be conducted to measure the impact on student achievement after 50 hours of professional development in one of the core curriculum areas.

162 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 20-g:

Nonacademic Degree.

SUBJECT: The University of Oklahoma.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the State Regents approve the University of Oklahoma's request to award Honorary Degrees to five individuals at its 2008 Commencement.

STAFF ANALYSIS:

A request has been made from the University of Oklahoma to award five honorary degrees during the 2008 Spring commencement. The request is consistent with State Regents' policy which requires:

• conferral of honorary degrees only at the highest level for which an institution is authorized to award earned degrees

• conferral of honorary degrees that are distinguishable from earned degrees

• conferral of honorary degrees not to exceed the number specified in the policy

• conferral of honorary degrees upon individuals who are not faculty, administrators, or other officials associated with the institution as specified in the policy

• conferral of honorary degrees upon individuals who have made outstanding contributions to society through intellectual, artistic, scientific, or professional accomplishments

The University of Oklahoma request meets requirements of the State Regents' policy.

195 196 Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 21-c:

Reports.

SUBJECT: Federal Teacher Education Report Card.

RECOMMENDATION:

This item is for information only.

BACKGROUND:

In October 1998, the U.S. Congress enacted Title II of the Higher Education Act (HEA) authorizing (1) new federal grant programs to improve recruitment, preparation, and support of new teachers and (2) new teacher preparation and licensing accountability measures and reporting requirements for higher education institutions and states. The HEA Title II accountability measures were developed by the U.S. Department of Education’s (USDE) National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) based on feedback from various organizations, focus groups and a consultative committee.

In a three-stage annual process, higher education institutions with teacher preparation programs submit data to the state, the state compiles a report to the USDE and the USDE compiles a national report for Congress. Each of these three reports is made public. As the agency in Oklahoma that licenses teachers, the State Department of Education (SDE) is responsible for compiling the state report.

POLICY ISSUES:

Section 207 in Title II of the HEA requires states that receive HEA funds to prepare an annual report on teacher preparation and licensing. Involvement with the HEA Title II report card and use of these data are consistent with the State Regents’ teacher education initiatives to ensure accountability for quality teacher education programs.

ANALYSIS:

Title II requires each institution to report annually on the following:

• Basic aspects of its program, such as number of students, amount of required supervised practice teaching, and the student-faculty ratio in supervised practice teaching.

• How well individuals who complete its teacher preparation program perform on initial state licensing and certification assessments in their areas of specialization.

• Whether it is classified by the state as “low-performing.”

• Licensing and certification requirements (including cut scores on required examinations).

• Descriptions of alternative routes through which individuals may become teachers.

197

• The percentage of teaching candidates who passed certification or licensure assessments - statewide, for each institution, and for each alternative route to certification.

• Information on the use of waivers of certification or licensure requirements, and the proportion of teachers with these waivers distributed across high- and low-poverty school districts and across subject areas.

• Criteria for assessing the performance of an institution’s teacher preparation program.

The annual state report must include adjusted quartile rankings for each reporting institution in the state, based on (1) its pass rate on all assessments (i.e., general knowledge, subject area and professional knowledge), and (2) its summary pass rate. Each quartile must have institutions listed, but since tied scores fall in the same adjusted quartile, some quartiles will be larger than 25 percent in size and some will be smaller.

Of the nine institutions with a 100 percent pass rate, three more than last year, five are State System institutions. Of the 22 Oklahoma colleges of education, the lowest percentage reported is 82.4 percent. Three private institutions had fewer than ten program completers. The “rule of ten” refers to institutions with fewer than ten students taking an examination. Privacy rules restrict the posting of those numbers.

Oklahoma State University has the largest number of completers passing at least one component of the Oklahoma licensure/certification test and Cameron University had 100 percent for the fourth consecutive year. The University of Oklahoma and the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma had 100 percent for the second consecutive year. Langston increased its percentage nine points from last year, 82 percent to 91 percent.

In addition to the required accountability measures, the institutions were encouraged to provide information to further describe their teacher preparation programs, which might account for the pass rates. As required, the universities submit reports to the SDE in April. The reports were due to the USDE in October 2006. To date, the SDE has not provided the reports to the State Regents’ office for review.

Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM #21-d:

Reports.

SUBJECT: State Regents’ Policy Reporting Requirements Survey.

RECOMMENDATION:

This item is for information only.

BACKGROUND:

As a measure of accountability for both the State System institutions and the State Regents, most State Regents’ policies require data collection and reporting. Among these policies are the following:

Academic Forgiveness Provisions (3.12.6) Special Admission (3.10.6) Retention Standards (3.10.8) International Student Admission and Admission of Non-native Speakers of English (3.10.5) Student Demonstration of Competencies (3.21.4)

Since the data requested are not available through other sources such as the Unitized Data System (UDS), one survey was designed to minimize reporting demands on institutions for these five policies. This is the ninth year of data collection.

POLICY ISSUES:

Academic Forgiveness Provisions A student may request an academic reprieve or academic renewal from public State System institutions consistent with State Regents’ policy. The explanation of grades section of the transcript will note the courses and semester(s) reprieved or renewed. Institutions granting academic reprieves or renewals must submit an annual report to the State Regents.

Special Admission Students who wish to enroll in courses without intending to pursue a degree may be permitted to enroll in up to nine credit hours without submitting academic credentials or meeting the academic curricular or performance requirements of the institution of desired entry. The president or his/her designee may allow non-degree-seeking students to exceed this initial nine credit-hour limit on an individual student basis. Such exceptions may be made only for non-degree-seeking students who meet the retention standards and must be appropriately documented and reported to the State Regents annually.

Retention Standards Institutions have the discretion to establish an academic suspension appeals procedure. Such procedures should allow appropriate discretion in deserving cases and require that the suspended student document any extraordinary personal circumstances that contributed to his/her academic deficiencies. Suspended

201

students can be readmitted only one time. Such students are readmitted on probationary status and must maintain a 2.0 GPA average each semester attempted while on probation or raise their retention GPA to the designated level. Students suspended a second time from the same institution cannot return to the suspending school until they have demonstrated the ability to succeed academically by raising their GPA to the retention standards at another institution.

International Student Admission and Admission of Non-native Speakers of English (ESL)

ESL students seeking enrollment at a State System college or university must present evidence of proficiency in the English language prior to admission, either as first-time students to the system or by transfer from another non-system college or university. Exceptions may be made if the applicant demonstrates proficiency in English prior to admission. Such exceptions must be documented and reported.

Student Demonstration of Competencies

The State Regents’ policy requires students to successfully remediate basic skills course requirements within the first 24 hours attempted or have all subsequent enrollments restricted to deficiency removal courses until the deficiencies are removed. The president or his/her designee may allow a deserving student who failed to remediate a basic skills deficiency in a single subject to continue to enroll in collegiate level courses in addition to remedial course work beyond the 24 hour limit providing the student has demonstrated success in collegiate courses to date. Such exceptions must be appropriately documented.

ANALYSIS:

A comprehensive survey was conducted to gather data regarding exceptions to the above mentioned policies. Results were tabulated and are reported by institutional tier (research, regional, and community college). Information was gathered for the academic year from all State System institutions.

Academic Forgiveness Provisions Circumstances may justify students being able to recover from academic problems in ways which do not forever jeopardize their academic standing. The policy recognizes there may be extraordinary situations in which a student has done poorly in an entire enrollment due to extenuating circumstances, which, in the judgment of the appropriate institutional officials, warrant excluding those grades in calculating the student’s retention and graduation GPAs. Students must meet specified criteria to be considered for an academic reprieve. Specifically, to request an academic reprieve, three years must have elapsed between the time the grades being requested reprieved were earned and the reprieve request. Prior to the request, the student must have earned a GPA of 2.0 or higher with no grade lower than a “C” in a minimum of 12 hours of course work excluding activity or performance courses.

A new provision, adopted in December 2003, allows a student who has had academic trouble in the past and who has been out of higher education for a number of years to recover without penalty and have a fresh start. Under academic renewal, which is optional for all State System institutions, course work taken prior to a date specified by the institution is not counted in the student’s graduation/retention GPA. An institution’s academic renewal policy must follow these guidelines: 1) At least five years must have elapsed between the last semester being renewed and the renewal request; 2) Prior to requesting academic renewal, the student must have earned a GPA of 2.0 or higher with no grade lower than a “C” in all regularly graded course work (a minimum of 12 hours) excluding activity or performance courses; 3) The request must be for all courses completed before the date specified in the request for renewal; 4) The

202

student must petition for consideration of academic renewal according to institutional policy; and 5) All courses remain on the student’s transcript, but are not calculated in the student’s retention/graduation GPA. Neither the content nor credit hours of renewed course work may be used to fulfill any degree or graduation requirements.

The student may not receive more than one academic reprieve or renewal during his/her academic career. Approval Rate of Academic Reprieves Granted by Tier 1998-99 to 2005-06

Note: Rogers State University is included in regional university totals beginning in 2000-01. Prior to that year RSU data are included in the community college totals.

• The number of requests for academic reprieves systemwide averaged 451 per year for the past eight years. In 2005-06, there were 544 requests. • Fifty-seven percent of all requests for academic reprieves were for one semester rather than two. • In 2005-06, the greatest numbers of requests (47 percent) were at the regional universities; 43 percent at the community colleges; 10 percent were at the research universities. • Systemwide in 2005-06, 80 percent of reprieve requests were granted. From 1998-99 to 2005-06 reprieve requests granted averaged 81 percent. • Community colleges granted the lowest percentage of academic reprieves in 2005-06, 72 percent, an increase of 2 percent from 2004-05. Regional universities granted 85 percent of requested reprieves in 2005-06, up from 82 percent in 2003-04. Research universities granted 87 percent of requested reprieves in 2005-06 and in 2004-05.

• Twenty-five renewals were requested in 2005-06 with 18 granted.

The high percentage of granted reprieves appears appropriate. Students requesting reprieves must meet specific State Regents’ academic requirements. Thus, it is expected that a high percentage of requested reprieves would be granted. Academic renewals have been in place since December 2003. The number of requests can be expected to increase as more students become aware of it.

Special Admission This policy provision allows institutional flexibility to meet individual student goals for specific personal enrichment or job related courses with appropriate academic control.

Note: Rogers State University is included in regional university totals beginning in 2000-01. Prior to that year RSU data are included in the community college totals. • In 2005-06, 11 institutions reported a total of 1,298 students enrolled as non-degree seeking students with more than nine credits, up from 604 students in 2004-05. Community colleges reported 71 percent of the exceptions; research universities, 28 percent; and regional universities, 2 percent.

204

• Since 1998-99, the number of non-degree seeking students enrolled in more than nine hours has averaged 707. The number enrolled at research universities averaged 268. At the regional universities the number averaged 21 and at the community colleges, 418. • Explanations for exceptions included courses for personal enrichment, courses for specific certifications, continuing education courses. Exchange students and those seeking degrees at other institutions were also granted exceptions.

Retention Standards Institutions have the discretion to establish an academic suspension appeals procedure. By State Regents’ policy, suspended students requesting appeals must document extraordinary personal circumstances that contributed to his/her academic deficiencies. Such events must be highly unusual and appeal decisions should be made only following the thoughtful deliberation of an appropriate committee that may include faculty, students, and administrators.

• From 2004-05 to 2005-06, the number of suspensions appealed decreased 1 percent from 819 to 811. The number of suspensions decreased 2 percent, from 7,199 to 7,065. The number of appeals that were granted increased 7 percent from 519 to 556. • Over the past eight years the percentage of suspensions appealed ranged between 11 percent in 2001-02 and 2005-06 to 17 percent in 2000-01. • Generally, the highest appeals percentages were found at the regional tier (19 percent in 2005-06). In 2005-06, the research universities reported an appeal rate of 12 percent, and the community colleges reported a rate of 5 percent. • Over the past seven years granted appeals systemwide have averaged 75 percent. In 2005-06, 69 percent of appeals were granted. • Community colleges granted the highest percentage of appeals at 76 percent in 2005-06, down from 77 percent in 2004-05; regional universities granted 74 percent of appeals in 2005-06, up from 62 percent in 2004-05; and research universities granted 27 percent in 2005-06, down from 37 percent in 2004-05.

As previously noted, students must document extraordinary circumstances that lead to suspension. Thus, a high percentage of granted appeals is appropriate to give a second-chance

205

opportunity for deserving students documenting circumstances beyond their control which contributed to or caused academic difficulties.

International Student Admission and Admission of Non-native Speakers of English The majority of exceptions to the minimum Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) score admission requirement were granted for ESL students who were military personnel or dependents, had alternative testing or examination, or were participating in exchange programs with foreign institutions which certified the students’ proficiency.

• The number of undergraduate ESL exceptions increased systemwide from 287 in 2004-05 to 317 in 2005-06. From 2004-05 to 2005-06, research universities reported an increase of 12 percent (221 to 248); regional universities decreased 34 percent (35 to 23); and community colleges increased 48 percent (31 to 46). • Graduate exceptions at research universities increased by 24 percent, from 29 in 2004-05 to 36 in 2005-06. Regional universities reported no graduate exceptions for 2005-06. • The majority of undergraduate and graduate ESL exceptions were granted at the research universities during the last six years. Research institutions granted between 65 and 79 percent of the undergraduate exceptions and granted between 79 and 100 percent of graduate exceptions in each of the past six years. • In 2005-06, the research universities, three regional universities, and four community colleges granted undergraduate exceptions.

Among the reasons cited for granting ESL exceptions were graduation from English-speaking high schools, active military duty, satisfactory COMPASS scores, and previous successful work at other colleges or universities.

206

Student Demonstration of Competencies Generally, students were given exceptions if they were making satisfactory progress toward removing deficiencies, were a transfer student, or were given a second-chance opportunity.

Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 21-e:

Reports.

SUBJECT: Academic Policy Exceptions Quarterly Report.

RECOMMENDATION:

This item is for information only.

BACKGROUND:

At the May 1994 meeting, the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education delegated authority to the Chancellor to approve minor exceptions and clarifications to State Regents’ policy that will not result in a broad scale circumvention of policy. All exceptions so granted are to be reported to the State Regents. This is the 39th report of exceptions to academic policy granted by the Chancellor.

POLICY ISSUES:

Three exceptions to the State Regents’ academic policies were granted by the Chancellor since the last report on June 28, 2007.

ANALYSIS:

Oklahoma State University (OSU)

May 30, 2007 An exception to the Undergraduate Degree Requirements policy, which states that baccalaureate degrees shall be based upon a minimum of 60 hours, excluding Physical Education activity courses, at a baccalaureate degree-granting institution was granted to OSU allowing for a student who earned 58 hours from a baccalaureate degree-granting institution to graduate in May 2007. This exception was made due to an advising error regarding courses the student had taken previously.

Northwestern Oklahoma State University (NWOSU)

June 13, 2007 An exception to the Undergraduate Degree Requirements policy, which states that baccalaureate degrees shall be based upon a minimum of 30 hours of resident credit, was granted to NWOSU for a student who earned 23 hours of resident credit. The exception was based on the financial hardship the student and her family would incur if the exception was not granted.

209

Oklahoma Panhandle State University (OPSU)

May 30, 2007 An exception to the Undergraduate Degree Requirements policy, which states that a baccalaureate degree must include completion of a basic education core of a minimum of 40 semester credit hours which shall include 6 credit hours of U.S. History and Government, was granted to OPSU allowing for a student that had only completed 3 credit hours of Government to graduate in May 2007. This exception was based on the financial hardship the student and his family would incur if the exception were not granted.

210

Meeting of the OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION September 13, 2007

AGENDA ITEM # 21-f:

Reports.

SUBJECT: OK EPAS (Oklahoma Educational Planning and Assessment System) Annual Report of Student Progress on the EXPLORE and PLAN Assessment for Academic Year 2006-2007 and ACT Scores for the Graduating Class of 2007.

RECOMMENDATION:

This item is for information only.

BACKGROUND:

The State Regents have sponsored the OK EPAS as a student preparation initiative since 1993. In 2006- 2007, the EXPLORE assessment was taken by 42,996 8th grade students and 40,431 students took the 10th grade PLAN assessment. EPAS began with four school districts in the 1993 pilot. Now, EPAS includes over 500 participating school districts, including many private schools.

Public school districts and private schools voluntarily participate in EPAS over and above the state’s required testing for K-12 education. The EXPLORE, PLAN, and ACT assessments are linearly scaled, and developmentally progressive allowing for longitudinal monitoring of student progress toward college readiness over time.

Schools and districts choosing to participate in EPAS are required to test all students with EXPLORE and PLAN. ACT scores are distinctly different from EXPLORE and PLAN because the ACT assessment is, in most instances, funded by the student and taken by those students planning postsecondary study. The ACT score and the percentage of students taking the ACT are used in the K-12 accountability system known as the “Academic Performance Index.”

POLICY ISSUES:

EPAS was originally created as a social justice initiative designed to increase student academic preparation following State Regents’ policy action to raise admissions standards in the 1990s. In 2000, State Regents’ EPAS commitment was strengthened by creating an office of student preparation. Student Preparation functions as the primary State Regents’ social justice mechanism that provides access to college through academic preparation. EPAS continues to be a valuable tool for Oklahoma middle and high school students, their parents and educators.

State Regents annually review EXPLORE, PLAN and ACT data as indicators of student readiness for collegiate success and to examine State System needs related to student preparation in Oklahoma.

211

ANALYSIS:

Eighth Grade EXPLORE Assessment Results

The EXPLORE assessment is administered to eighth graders and is a good estimate of what a student would score on the PLAN or ACT assessment. The following table displays the EXPLORE results over the past five testing years against the national norms. EXPLORE and PLAN were renormed in 2006; the previous and current norms are included in the table in the sequence in which they occur. Data presented in bold represent scores that fall below the national norms for eighth graders in the respective content areas.

Oklahoma EPAS The EXPLORE Assessment (Scale 1-25) 1999 2005 Testing Area 2002-2003 2003-2004 2004-2005 2005-2006 National 2006-2007 National Norms Norms English 14.1 14.0 13.8 13.9 13.9 14.0 14.2 Mathematics 14.1 14.0 14.0 14.1 14.4 14.2 15.1 Reading 14.1 14.0 13.9 13.9 13.9 14.0 13.8 Science 15.9 15.9 15.8 15.9 15.9 15.9 15.9 Composite 14.7 14.6 14.5 14.6 14.7 14.7 14.9

Using the previous norms, Oklahoma scored above the national norming group for all content areas except mathematics. Based on the new norms, Oklahoma scores below the national norming groups in English and mathematics. Low performance in these areas brings the composite score below the national norm as well.

EXPLORE and Achievement Gaps

The following table analyzes the scores of ethnic groups compared to the national norms. Data in bold indicate scores that fall below the national norms.

Oklahoma EPAS The EXPLORE Assessment (Scale 1-25) African American Multiracial, 2005 Caucasian Hispanic Asian Testing Area American Indian Other, PNR National (22,135) (3,316) (679) (3,593) (5,424) (4,827) Norms English 11.9 13.3 15 12.2 15.4 13.4 14.2 Mathematics 12.1 13.7 15.1 12.9 16.5 13.7 15.1 Reading 12.2 13.5 14.8 12.5 15.1 13.3 13.8 Science 14.6 15.5 16.5 15.0 17.3 15.4 15.9 Composite 12.9 14.1 15.5 13.3 16.2 14.1 14.9

The disaggregated data by ethnic group show significant achievement gaps for African Americans, Native Americans, Hispanics and those students identifying themselves as Multiracial, Other or Prefer Not to Respond. When the EXPLORE data are disaggregated by gender, female students outscore males in all

212

content areas except mathematics. Males and females as a group score the same in mathematics at the 8th grade level.

The EXPLORE test includes questions that allow students to self report information in several key areas, such as educational aspiration, their plans to take core courses in high school, and potential career plans. Additionally, State Regents are able to add Oklahoma specific questions to the exam. Students responses include:

• Sixty-five percent indicate a plan to attend a two-year or four-year college after high school. • Thirty-nine percent of eighth-grade students indicated that they believe their courses were challenging. • Only thirty-three percent agreed or strongly agreed that a teacher or counselor helps them plan courses for school or graduation. • Forty-five percent get most of their information about college from parents, friends or family.

Tenth Grade PLAN Assessment Results

The PLAN assessment, administered to 10th graders, is a good estimate of what a student would score on the ACT assessment, had the student taken the ACT on the date of PLAN testing. The predictive nature of PLAN indicates that students will typically score two to four points higher on the ACT after having taken the PLAN and subsequently taking the ACT assessment in their junior and/or senior year.

Oklahoma EPAS The PLAN Assessment (Scale 1-32) 1999 2005 Testing Area 2002-2003 2003-2004 2004-2005 2005-2006 National 2006-2007 National Norms Norms English 16.3 16.4 16.2 16.4 16.1 16.2 16.9 Mathematics 16.4 16.5 16.5 16.5 16.3 16.5 17.4 Reading 16.3 16.5 16.4 16.5 15.8 16.5 16.9 Science 17.5 17.5 17.7 17.7 17.4 17.6 18.2 Composite 16.7 16.8 16.8 16.9 16.5 16.8 17.5

Interestingly, prior to the recent renorming of EXPLORE and PLAN, Oklahoma’s 10th grade PLAN testers performed above the national norms in every area including mathematics; however, 2006-2007 Oklahoma PLAN testers fall significantly below the new national norm in every content area.

Oklahoma EPAS The PLAN Assessment (Scale 1-32) 2005 African American Multiracial, Caucasian Hispanic Asian Testing Area American Indian Other, PNR (22,673) (2,674) (840) National (3,277) (4,916) (3,918) Norms English 13.8 15.4 17.0 14.4 17.5 15.6 16.9 Mathematics 14.2 15.8 17.2 15.2 18.6 15.9 17.4 Reading 14.3 15.8 17.3 14.9 17.7 16.0 16.9 Science 16.1 17.0 18.2 16.5 19.2 17.2 18.2 Composite 14.7 16.1 17.5 15.4 18.4 16.3 17.5

The challenge of achievement gaps continues throughout high school years. Even the majority Caucasian population is significantly outpaced by Asian students which is the smallest self-identified group. When the PLAN data are disaggregated by gender, female students outscore the male counterparts in all content areas except mathematics.

The Student Perspective

Among Oklahoma students who took the PLAN test in the 10th grade in 2006-2007:

• Forty-five percent agreed or strongly agreed that their classes are challenging. • Thirty-eight percent agreed or strongly agreed that counselors or teachers help them plan their courses for graduation. • Sixty-seven percent plan to attend a two-year or four-year college after high school. • Forty-five percent get most of their information about college from parents, friends or family.

ACT Results for the High School Graduating Class of 2007

Overall, the ACT results show the following:

• Oklahoma’s composite average increased two tenths of a scale score point (+.2) to 20.7. This is a statistically significant increase over last year. The national composite average gained one tenth of a scale score point (21.2). The gap between Oklahoma’s composite score and the nation’s decreased from six-tenths to five-tenths of a scale score point (-.5).

• Mathematics remains Oklahoma’s primary need for increased attention to student preparation. Oklahoma students score a full one and two-tenths of a scale score point below the national average (-1.2). This gap has widened from seven-tenths of a scale score point (-.7) in the last ten years.

214

• Achievement gaps remain between different demographic subgroups. However, increases in the number of Oklahoma students taking the ACT over the past several years have been largely attributable to increased minority student participation. Oklahoma’s students of African American, American Indian and Hispanic descent continue to outscore their national counterparts.

• Still, even with the statutory requirement that the core high school graduation units equal the number of units advocated by ACT, too few students are benefiting from the kind of rigorous, narrowly-defined, academic course sequences necessary to ensure success in college. While the number of units is important, what those units are and what those units contain in terms of content and rigor is even more important.

ACT has identified benchmarks that are indicative of a high likelihood of success in college. The scores ACT identifies nationally are those for which students have a 50 percent chance of making a “B” or better or a 75 percent chance of making a “C” or better in their entry-level college coursework.

National Benchmarks for College Readiness Based on ACT Subject Area Test Scores Percent of Oklahoma 2007 College Course for which Benchmark for Subject Test Graduates Meeting Success is Predicted College Readiness Benchmarks English English Composition 18 68% Mathematics Algebra 22 32% Reading Social Sciences 21 51% Science Biology 24 23%

ACT has also calculated the percent of Oklahoma students meeting the 19 benchmark (the score that students must make, by State Regents’ policy, in order to enter college-level coursework within content areas without remediation). Oklahoma’s English benchmark is one scale point higher than the national benchmark. Therefore, a smaller percentage of students are meeting the Oklahoma benchmark score of 63 percent.

In mathematics, even though Oklahoma’s benchmark for readiness is three points lower than the national benchmark, only 51 percent of the 2007 high school graduates met this benchmark.

ACT has recently extended the benchmarks down to the EXPLORE and PLAN providing parents and educators the prospect of evaluating student preparation for post secondary education as early as the eighth grade. The following chart examines Oklahoma’s 2007 graduation class as a cohort providing a unique opportunity to examine student preparation as a process throughout the middle and high school years.

English scores for this cohort are consistently above the national benchmark while Reading scores for EXPLORE and PLAN are below the national benchmark. ACT Reading scores are above the national benchmark. All mathematics and science scores are below the national benchmark at all three levels. Data in bold indicate scores that fall below the national benchmarks.

It is critical to note that as important as the course sequence and requirements are to all academic achievement, it is even more important that the state’s required curriculum, PASS (Priority Academic Student Skills) which has been aligned to the ACT College Readiness Standards, be taught rigorously at all levels of student preparation from kindergarten through the senior year.

As state and national accountability measures continue increasing the pressure on local school educators, more school sites and school districts are availing themselves of the technical assistance in guidance, professional development and curriculum improvement afforded them through EPAS, Student Preparation and GEAR UP.

Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 2007 Oklahoma ACT Assessment Results

Overview The mean ACT scores for 2007 high school graduating seniors who have taken the assessment are: Oklahoma = 20.7 Nation = 21.2

1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 Oklahoma 20.5 20.6 20.8 20.5 20.5 20.5 20.6 20.4 20.5 20.7 National 21.0 21.0 21.0 21.0 20.8 20.8 20.9 20.9 21.1 21.2 Gap OK/Nation 0.5 0.4 .02 .05 .03 .03 .03 .05 .06 .05

For the 10 year period 1998 to 2007, the mean ACT Composite scores for graduates in Oklahoma and the nation increased by two tenths of a point. Over the same time period, the gap between Oklahoma and the national composite remained the same, but decreased one tenth of a point from last year which represents a decline after increases in 2005 and 2006. The composite score of 20.7 for Oklahoma is also the highest since 2000 when it was 20.8.Oklahoma’s subject scores increased in all areas and reduced the gaps compared to the nation in both reading and English to two tenths of a point. Although the Oklahoma math score increased one tenth of a point, the gap between Oklahoma and the nation increased to a ten year high of 1.2 points. The average Oklahoma science score also increased one tenth of a point, but the gap remained the same at five tenths of a point.

Student Participation The following table compares Oklahoma high school graduates to the number taking the ACT. Since 1998, the participation rate increased from 68.7 to 69.8 percent. 19981 19991 20001 20011 20021 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 No. of Test Takers 24,874 25,755 26,902 26,908 26,717 27,009 26,556 26,297 26,425 26,360 No. of HS Grads2 36,254 37,396 38,512 38,344 37,699 37,688 38,109 37,446 37,940 37,7523 % Taking ACT 68.7% 68.9% 69.9% 70.2% 70.9% 71.7% 69.7% 70.2% 69.6% 69.8% NOTE: 1ACT revised the number of test-takers for 1998 through 2002. 2Actuals provided by SDE (some private school data are not collected). 3Estimate by OSRHE based on SDE enrollment data.

Core Curriculum Since 1998, the percentage of Oklahoma college-bound high school seniors taking the ACT core curriculum (4 units-English, 3 units-math, 3 units-social studies, 3 units-sciences) declined four percent. For the graduating class of 2007, students who completed the core curriculum scored 2.5 points higher than students who did not.

Fewer Oklahoma students are taking challenging courses that best prepare them for college. The percentage of students taking college preparatory core curriculum decreased in each of the last four years and represents the lowest mark in ten years. Since 2004 each race and ethnic group has experienced three consecutive years of declining participation by students taking the core curriculum. Oklahoma core curriculum takers scored below their national counterparts on the ACT composite by three tenths of a point, up one tenth of a point from the previous year. Non-core takers lagged behind their national counterparts by six tenths of a point, up one tenth of a point from the previous year.

Minority Students Many minority students continue to perform above their national counterparts. African Americans have equaled or outscored their national counterparts until 2006 when they fell below the national composite score, yet 2007 graduates scored two tenths of a point higher than their national counterparts. The composite ACT for Native Americans in Oklahoma increased to 19.5 in 2007, up one tenth of a point from the previous year. Native Americans also consistently scored above their national counterparts, scoring six tenths of a point higher on the composite. After scoring below their national counterparts the last two years, 2007 Hispanic graduates’ composite score increased six tenths of a point from the previous year and two tenths of a point above their national counterparts. In 2007, minorities accounted for over 26 percent of Oklahoma test takers.

State Comparisons Oklahoma ranks 15th in the nation in the percentage of students tested. Oklahoma is also tied for 15th for average composite score when compared to the 26 states that test 50 percent or more of their high school graduates. This is up from 19th from the previous year. When compared to the nation, Oklahoma students scored below the national average in all areas. When compared to the state with the highest composite score, Oklahoma’s average score was 1.8 points lower. The gap to the highest state for the following subject scores were: English (1.3), math (2.7), reading (1.5), and science (2.0).
