Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an opportune time for researchers in higher education to examine policy via cross-state comparative analyses. Momentous court, legislative and policy developments that impact state-level higher education policy are emerging at a rapid rate. The states have emerged as postsecondary policy innovators in the areas of student financing, institutional accountability, and student access.Following political scientists’ "rediscovery" of states as units of analysis--because they constitute unique "natural laboratories" for testing theory and hypotheses about political behavior and policy adoption dynamics--this book introduces this perspective as an increasingly important tool for researchers in higher education.State Postsecondary Education Research provides an in-depth examination of the challenges and opportunities inherent in conducting cross-state higher education policy research. The authors of each chapter use their individual research projects to demonstrate the array of methodological, theoretical, analytical, and political challenges inherent in conducting comparative state-level policy research. Among the innovative methods described is the use of pooled cross-sectional time-series analytic techniques and event history analysis--now widespread within the disciplines of economics and political science--to shift the unit of analysis from the state to the state-year, thus expanding greatly both the statistical power of the models being tested and the data-demands of those models.The goal is to introduce comparative state-level postsecondary policy research to a broader audience, and to contribute to discussions of both the challenges and the importance of this approach to higher education policy research.The book is intended as a resource for researchers in higher education policy and as a text for higher education policy courses. It may also appeal to scholars of educational policy as well as higher education policymakers.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: California has close to 2,000 privately owned schools that offer vocational programs not leading to a degree. These include schools providing training and certification for a wide variety of careers in such areas as computer technology, cosmetology, health care, and other business and technical occupations. In addition, there are over 300 privately owned colleges and universities that award degrees. These private schools and colleges are generally referred to as "state-approved" private institutions. They are regulated by the Department of Consumer Affairs, Bureau for Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education (BPPVE) and may or may not be accredited. They are distinct from the colleges and universities that are commonly referred to as "independent." Independent colleges and universities are accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and are not regulated by the BPPVE. It is widely recognized that the state's program for regulation of private postsecondary and vocational education is unsatisfactory. Some 13 reviews, reports and audits have been conducted in the past eight years to examine deficiencies in the program, the reasons for them, and possible solutions. Major problems exist in the structural framework of the law and the disparate sets of rules that govern different categories of institutions. In 2004, legislation was passed appointing an independent Operations Monitor to assess the Bureau's operations. In September 2005, the Monitor released a report with recommendations addressing problems in statutory, operational, and financial areas. The Operations Monitor's Report contains 77 recommendations for improving the oversight of private postsecondary and vocational education. Major problem areas lie in the structural framework of the law, the funding mechanisms, approval requirements and processes, and enforcement. This working paper provides examples of specific recommendations contained in the report.

Download or read book Reexamining the Federal Role in Higher Education written by Rebecca S. Natow and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2022 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive description of the federal government's relationship with higher education and how that relationship became so expansive and indispensable over time. Drawing from constitutional law, social science research, federal policy documents, and original interviews with key policy insiders, the author explores the U.S. government's role in regulating, financing, and otherwise influencing higher education. Natow analyzes how the government's role has evolved over time, the activities of specific governmental branches and agencies that affect higher education, the nature of the government's influence today, and prospects for the future of federal involvement in higher education. Chapters examine the politics and practices that shape policies affecting nondiscrimination and civil rights, student financial aid, educational quality and student success, campus crime, research and development, intellectual property, student privacy, and more. Book Features: Provides a contemporary and thorough understanding of how federal higher education policies are created, implemented, and influenced by federal and nonfederal policy actors. Situates higher education policy within the constitutional, political, and historical contexts of the federal government. Offers nuanced perspectives informed by insider information about what occurs behind the scenes in the federal higher education policy arena. Includes case studies illustrating the profound effects federal policy processes have on the everyday lives of college students, their families, institutions, and other higher education stakeholders.
