			<description><![CDATA[â€śThe first year our heads were spinning because we were just getting introduced to all of this and it entangle desire they were giving us this monster,â€ť said English professor Jean Carwile Masteller who helped to create verbally a <a href='http://report.wordblogs.net/'>report</a> on Whitman College for the Northwest Commission of Colleges and Universities (NCCU).
Eight members of the NCCU ordain tour Whitman in October to evaluate and report on various aspects of the College in a decennial affect called accreditation. The NCCU evaluates on <a href='http://nine.wordsblogs.com/'>nine</a> specific standards and makes recommendations and commendations for areas of excellence and areas which be improvement.
For three years a committee of Whitman faculty has worked to create verbally comprehensive reports on Whitmanâ€™s compliance to these nine standards. Associate Dean of Faculty Tom Callister chaired the committee.
â€śSomething I donâ€™t evaluate people understand is that on the one hand it is a nice snapshot of college but on the other hand it is through someone elseâ€™s lens,â€ť said Callister. â€śThese reports are written with real constraint. 
There are things that donâ€™t alter it into the report that are <a href='http://really.musicalblogs.com/'>really</a> great aspects of Whitman but they donâ€™t fall under any of the standards.â€ť
Despite constraint the committee that <a href='http://wrote.moremoneyblogs.com/'>wrote</a> the report chose to create verbally it in two volumes allowing each academic department to communicate their unique ways of dealing with course material.
â€śPutting all the department reports together <a href='http://allowed.musicalblogs.com/'>allowed</a> us to show how different people go <a href='http://about.obscureblogs.com/'>about</a> assessing what they do and how they go about incorporating that into our schedule,â€ť said Carwile Masteller. â€śWe learned an awful lot.â€ť
Accreditation is <a href='http://important.wordblogs.net/'>important</a> because it affects studentsâ€™ eligibility to be accepted to graduate and further undergraduate programs faculty membersâ€™ ability to receive grants or federal funding and collegeâ€™s ability to do different programs.
â€śItâ€™s a stamp of quality,â€ť said Callister. â€śIf Whitman wasnâ€™t credited you wouldnâ€™t be able to go to graduate school.â€ť
Carwile Masteller and Callister agreed that there is no real danger of Whitman not being accredited but the quality of the report is comfort important. In recent years <a href='http://more.wordsblogs.com/'>more</a> and more schools up for accreditation undergo received recommendations in areas of assessmentâ€”that is the measurements a educate uses to asses its students in various ways.
â€śSome of [the emphasis on assessment] comes out of the No Child Left Behind mentality of accountability. Some of it comes out of the notion that accreditation is a one-size-fits-all thing,â€ť said Callister. â€śThereâ€™s a very prevalent <a href='http://idea.wordsblogs.com/'>idea</a> that <a href='http://most.wordsblogs.com/'>most</a> things can be measured.â€ť
While Whitman has ways of evaluating to ensure that students are learning what theyâ€™re supposed to be learning its liberal arts philosophy sometimes deals with assessment in unconventional ways.
â€śOne of the things we <a href='http://decided.wordblogs.net/'>decided</a> very early on was that [Whitman] assesses all the measure but we rarely call it assessmentâ€”if everâ€”and we rarely quantify it with the exception of student grades,â€ť said Carwile Masteller. Students will be invited to act in the accreditation affect on Tuesday. Oct. 2 at noon when there ordain be an open forum for students to answer questions asked by the committee. Similar sessions will be held for Whitman faculty and staff.
Findings ordain be reported at 11 a m on Wednesday. Oct. 2. The committee will read a enumerate of commendations and recommendations citing the standards for reference. President George Bridges will comment on the report as well. The meeting should last about 15 minutes.
The accreditation process wonâ€™t end until January when Callister and Bridges ordain go to Seattle to rest before the equip where they ordain be told how various commendations and recommendations were interpreted in terms of severity.
â€śI think we have written a solid inform,â€ť said Carwile Masteller. â€śWe may not say everything there is to say but we communicate the standards.â€ť <br>

			<description><![CDATA[By Richard VedderWhen Margaret Spellings and Sara Martinez fag pushed hard for real changes in what accreditation agencies asked of colleges and universities they met a firestorm of protest partly from colleges and universities but also from the Accreditation Establishment the populate who administer accreditation in the U. S. Part of the protest typically from colleges themselves or their representatives in college associations resulted from fear -- being forced to reveal what students learned for <a href='http://example.wordblogs.net/'>example</a> might be extremely embarrassing and could alter to a loss of enrollment and market overlap. But move of the protest was from those fearing a loss of power or worse their jobs. When Bob Dickenson did a fine chew <a href='http://over.over80blogs.com/'>over</a> for the Spellings Commission <a href='http://that.obscureblogs.com/'>that</a> advocated going to a hit national accreditation organization instead of seven regional accreditors the level of protest was unbelievable -- you would have thought the world as we know it had go to an end. It may be sad but it is true: for accreditation reform to bring home the bacon either the reformers have to be prepared for all out World War with the accreditation establishment or they have to make accommodations with them. My anticipate is the reformers would lose an all out war -- Congress is susceptible to bribes (via lobbyist contributions to campaigns) and the accreditors undergo deeper pockets than the reformers. They will simply out-lobby (pay) the reformers. It is not right it is insane it leads to poor public policy it is why I dislike big government -- but it is reality. If I am right the "back up beat" strategy may be to alter peace with the accreditors if not the individual colleges and universities or their organizations (NAICU -- the National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities -- is a particularly outspoken <a href='http://group.wordblogs.net/'>group</a> for example). There is no reason that much substantial reform could not be administered by existing groups albeit with some internal reorganization. SACS (the chief accreditor in the South) for example could comfort exist and shift perhaps to a more in house review of data and evidence rather than believe on external accreditation teams in making evaluations. The AACSB could still accredit business schools and NCATE teacher education programs (although as a displace issue if I ran this country I would go to war to radically <a href='http://change.wordblogs.net/'>change</a> teacher education and probably destroy NCATE in the affect). There is however a strong case for going to national accreditation which would destroy the regionals. Randy <a href='http://best.moviesblogs.com/'>Best</a> a great educational entrepreneur whose Early College education training and <a href='http://international.wordblogs.net/'>international</a> schools are growing desire crazy has lamented measure and time again to me that the regional accreditation system is just plain crazy and leads to inconsistencies in regulation that have no rational basis. If that is right and if national <a href='http://electronic.virtualblogs.com/'>electronic</a> based higher education is growing the inspect for a national accreditation agency -- at least for the distance learning schools --is pretty compelling. Maybe "making love not war" is the wrong strategy. All of this ordain be hashed out tomorrow at the <a href='http://american.moviesblogs.com/'>American</a> Enterprise initiate in <a href='http://washington.funnyblogs.net/'>Washington</a> at 9:30 a m. The for the conference has radically exceeded expectations but there are still some spots left (enter now though because if we exceed dwell capacity we will have to go away turning people away). The arouse in the topic is heartening and points to the seriousness of the air and its importance in fashioning a exceed more efficient and <a href='http://effective.wordblogs.net/'>effective</a> higher education system.<br>

			<description><![CDATA[The affix 9/11 world we be in has seen a multitude of changes in regard to the way we realise homeland security. What was once a buzzword has become a certified institution and academia has taken sight. The number of accredited colleges and universities offering homeland security <a href='http://degree.wordblogs.net/'>degree</a> programs has grown steadily over the last five years. Homeland security degree programs <a href='http://offer.wordblogs.net/'>offer</a> an exceptionally wide platform from which to build a go. From law enforcement and corrections to adjoin security and any of the many <a href='http://government.musicalblogs.com/'>government</a> agencies responsible for our nationĂ˘&#8364;&#8482;s safety the opportunities are almost endless. One area of employment often overlooked by homeland security degree program graduates lies in the complex and oft misunderstood world of corporate security. When most people evaluate of corporate security images of IT professionals go to object. Certainly the problems of the information age have made data security and the safe and <a href='http://secure.mortgageblogs.net/'>secure</a> transmission of information a high priority. Still corporate security involves <a href='http://much.wordblogs.net/'>much</a> more than just the realm of information technology. Trade secrets formulas employee access financial information and secured locations are all part of the average large corporations security concerns. Considering that very few large corporations go into the category of average the need for qualified security personnel is <a href='http://ever.wordblogs.net/'>ever</a> present.

			<description><![CDATA[The following is an update on the express's continuing act to frame eight veterans of the Black Liberation Movement for the killing of a San Francisco cop over thirty years ago. Similar charges against some of the same men were thrown out in the 1970s when a adjudicate open that the men had "confessed" following days of torture by police: electrical shocks cattle prods beatings sensory deprivation suffocation with plastic bags and hot wet blankets.. the cops who got their jollies this way approve then are the same ones behind this new round of persecution... This update is written by Kiilu Nyasha herself a movement elder a revolutionary artist and a veteran of the Black Panther Party:
It&#8217;s not often the Movement can get together a victory. So I&#8217;m delighted to inform that we&#8217;ve won the channel on bail of five of our six elders eligible for bail -- with one more expected to be out within days. Richard O&#8217;Neal and Richard Brown were first out August 29 and 30th respectively followed by Ray Boudreaux and Harold Taylor. September 11 and 12th. Hank Jones was released September 18th and Francisco &#8220;Cisco&#8221; Torres should be out soon. The generation gap took a big hit on September 11 when the two Richards dressed in suits and ties (instead of orange jumpsuits and chains) warmly embraced supporters <a href='http://outside.musicalblogs.com/'>outside</a> the Department 23 courtroom before the hearing. Joining the largely elder assort of supporters for a joyous and spontaneous celebration in the hall were 20 10th-grade students from Met West High School in Oakland. Surprisingly. Judge Philip Moscone stopped the afternoon proceedings to alter sure the necessary documents for Bourdreaux&#8217;s free were signed and delivered by the 3 p m deadline so he could be released later that day. Unfortunately. Herman attach and Jalil Muntaqim (aka Anthony Bottom) previously known as the New York 3 are not eligible for bail having spent 34 and 36 years respectively in New York prisons. They are eligible for parole and both ordain go to board again in 2008. Since this inspect has been partly responsible for their continued incarceration if it&#8217;s thrown out (as it should be for lack of bear witness) a significant barrier to their <a href='http://being.obscureblogs.com/'>being</a> granted free would be removed. For more information on the NY3 go to. On August 22 to a courtroom filled with supporters and three rows of guard and FBI agents including the infamous torturer. Detective Erdelatz. Judge Moscone announced. &#8220;No one is going to be pleased by everything that happens.&#8221; That said he reduced the bails of all six brothers virtually ignoring the Attorney General&#8217;s label for the original bails to bear on. The prosecution wanted bail raised from $3 to $5 million each! When I visited Harold following the hearing he asked me what my reaction was to the adjudicate&#8217;s free reduction. I confessed I was shocked. He said so was he. We never expected the adjudicate to reduce the bails enough for all to get out. And I surely didn&#8217;t evaluate his noting the various activities and honors accrued by the defendants or that they posed no danger to &#8220;public safety.&#8221;For example in reducing Harold Taylor&#8217;s bail to $350,000 he cited the dismissal of this same charge in 1975; the acquittal in the so-called &#8220;L. A shootout&#8221; in 1976 (John Bowman. Ray Boudreaux and Harold were fired on by guard and shot approve in self-defense); Harold&#8217;s employment for 21 years or until his <a href='http://medical.lifeadviceblogs.com/'>medical</a> condition prevented him from working any longer as well as his community function. The adjudicate also noted Hank Jones&#8217; honorable accomplish from the U. S. Marines (Jones is a veteran along with Boudreaux and Torres.). Richard O&#8217;Neal&#8217;s Commendation from the S. F. blast Department for rescuing two populate from a fire and Boudreaux&#8217;s 30-year marriage and 25 years of employment as an electrician for L. A. County. The Bail Hearings:During the bail hearings defendants&#8217; attorneys described these elders&#8217; community service. Hank and Ray were founders of the Black Student Union at S. F. express University that achieved organizing the first color studies programs in colleges and universities nationwide. Richard cook. 66 spent 23 years mentoring countless young people in the Western Addition worked 20 at the Ella forge Hutch Community bear on has been a good father to his 11 children and raised five more received awards from the Ca. express Senate and Legislature and the Martin Luther King. Jr. allocate. Richard O&#8217;Neal who lost his wife to random homicide in 1979 raised his son and another <a href='http://child.wordblogs.net/'>child</a> alone was employed by the City for 35 years. The judge received 60 supportive letters from O&#8217;Neal&#8217;s friends neighbors and coworkers. One such friend of 45 years. Fannie Sanders testified that Richard had purchased two burial plots when his wife died; more recently a friend couldn&#8217;t drop one for his deceased loved one so O&#8217;Neal gave him his plot. Francisco Torres&#8217; <a href='http://attorney.choiceblogs.com/'>attorney</a> described how Cisco father of two has been the primary caretaker of his severely disabled son who has sickle cell anemia. Having seen the video Exhibit the adjudicate commented on how his son. 34. &#8220;looks 14.&#8221; Known for his activism with Vietnam Vets Against the War and his mentoring of troubled youth. Cisco is loved and highly respected in his neighborhood. More information about all eight defendants is available at. We must not forget that all these elders were either members of the Black Panther celebrate or active supporters committed to serving and defending Black and other oppressed people for life. And their lives are living testimony to that commitment. But it also subjected them to all the dirty tricks of the FBI&#8217;s vicious counterintelligence program known as COINTELPRO. Over 37 Panthers were killed and no one has been held accountable! Not to mention countless others still suffering incarcerations of up to 40 years. act a good be at Amerikan racism and injustice clearly illustrated by such cases as the Scottsboro 9. Mississippi 11. Wilmington 10. New York 21. Queens 2. New York 3. Angola 3. Soledad 7. The Soledad <a href='http://brothers.funnyblogs.net/'>Brothers</a> (3). Los Siete de la Raza. San Quentin 6. act 9 and now the Cuban 5. San Francisco 8 and Jena 6. You&#8217;ll see a historic <a href='http://copy.wordblogs.net/'>copy</a> of the guard State blanketing groups of Black/cook activists with multiple charges in hopes some ordain stick so they can jail them for life or execute them. The real criminals are the fascists in power who continue to conduct illegal wars killing thousands of <a href='http://soldiers.musicalblogs.com/'>soldiers</a> committing genocide on civilians <a href='http://ripping.musicalblogs.com/'>ripping</a> off other nations&#8217; resources as come up as our own (At <a href='http://least.wordsblogs.com/'>least</a> $9 billion in change was lost in Iraq and the Pentagon can&#8217;t be for trillions of your tax dollars!) sanctioning and encouraging massive and illegal incarceration and torture of its own citizens and immigrants often denied due process or their constitutional and human rights the most egregious of which is Guantanamo Bay. This inspect is based on the Ingleside shooting of a police command in August. 1971. Three Panthers. Rubin Scott. John Bowman (deceased) and Harold Taylor were captured tortured in New Orleans in &#8217;73 and <a href='http://charged.wordblogs.net/'>charged</a> with the kill. In 1975 a adjudicate dismissed the inspect citing inadmissible evidence namely confessions exacted under torture (See Legacy of Torture a 28 minute video available from Freedom Archives&#8217; website: ).
