Sounds like they are trying to “step up” their game and compete with the PC Ivy League colleges!!!
A lot of people on this forum defend government’s total control of the vast majority of “educational” institutions in the US.
“2 + 2 = uh, hmm, I dunno.... but, DOWN WITH WHITEY!”
Duh, Tu n’ Tu Be Fo
Thank you, I hated English, it is so illogical. However, no rational person can not recognize the utility of language. I love mathematics, and I have a passion to teach it to people just like you. I use toys to teach mathematics, rubber bands to teach logarithms, balloons and power lines to teach quadratics. Kites to teach geometry and calculus. The real world is my playground, and my lesson plan. Mathematics is a just another tool to understand the world.
I finished my graduate program at Wayne State in 1981. In the years that I taught classes as a graduate student Wayne State undergrads produced two grading curves FDC and CBA because of the active enrollment and promotion of marginal minority students. This was the equivalent of “Social Promotions” that were taking place in elementary and high schools. That was the beginning of the end of Wayne as a prevously highly regarded University.
According to the Department of Education, he goal of accreditation is to ensure that education provided by institutions of higher education meets acceptable levels of quality. Accrediting agencies, which are private educational associations of regional or national scope, develop evaluation criteria and conduct peer evaluations to assess whether or not those criteria are met. Institutions and/or programs that request an agency’s evaluation and that meet an agency’s criteria are then “accredited” by that agency. So if certain points of the recognition of intervention of needs are not available, it lowers the ability to get credited.
The point being that if the providing of one of the core topics is not available, it lowers the level of education and should send up a red flag to the government to recognize them as a college or university worthy of tax status or funding. When they start to lose the money because they cannot provide a complete education, then they would have to conform or shut their doors. And if they are in this predicament, other colleges will not accept their credits for transfer further taking them out of the education process. It’ll just take a little time till no one will pay for tuition.

Follow the $$. There are hundreds of these little firms and organizations that go around giving diversity seminars for big bucks. And then diversity divas get hired by the colleges and universities at outrageous salaries.
So somebody voted to give a big chunk of money to friend/s. Maybe kickbacks?
Maybe that’s what the whole BLM movement is about?
moral training and manners might make a better world - compassion, kindness, tolerance
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
